    Who knows their cheese, poll 3

    While our first cheese was the Queen of cheeses this one is considered as the "King of cheeses". It has a tingly pungent taste. Only the milk of specially bred sheep is used and is ripened in limestone caverns. It has the cylinder-shape with sticky, pale ivory, natural rind. The ripe version of this cheese is creamy, thick and white on the inside and have a thin, burnt-orange skin. The ripening of the cheeses is in the natural, damp aired caves found under the French village from which it is named. It is the quality of the milk, the processing of the curd, the adding of “Penicillium blank blank" and finally the ripening in natural caves that give us this unique and remarkable cheese. The exterior aspect should be white and faintly shiny. The “pâté” should be cohesive, at the same time slightly crumbly. This cheese has a distinct bouquet and a flavor that combines the sweet burnt-caramel taste of sheep's milk with the sharp, metallic tang. Also frequently added in dressings and salads
