| BOUTON D'OC |
Description: The Boutons dOc
is an unusual small pear shaped cheese with a straw (sometimes a vine branch)
pierced through the center. The rind allows natural mould to form on the
outside giving the cheese a wrinkled look.
Texture: The cheese has a fine, soft
pâte uncooked and unpressed. Taste: The taste is extremely pleasant. As
the maturity period is extended the taste becomes more pronounced, but always
tres agreable to the palate. As the cheese is small it requires one delicious
mouthful to appreciate its qualities. |
