| SAINTE MAURE DE TOURAINE |
 Description:
Sainte Maure is the
masterpiece of Touraine goat cheese. This cheese is easily recognized because
it has a long straw that traverses the middle. The straw is placed there to
facilitate handling of the cheese.
Texture:
A Saint Maure farm cheese must have
a thin, smooth rind with blue-grey moulding.
Taste:
The aroma is of walnut. The cheese
has a slightly salty taste and depending on the period of maturation, the
savour is nutty. |
