French Cheese Abondance Fermier AOC 1 lb.

Abondance Fermier - cow's milk cooked, pressed hard AOC, cut cheese - 1 lb/454 gr, France.

The name of this cheese comes from the breed of cows (abondance) from which milk is taken on the Swiss border, in Avignon. The blue label fixed on the rind indicates that the cheese is a member of the AOC family since 1990.

Texture: The texture of the ivory/yellow pate is supple and velvety. Its rind is smooth with an amber color showing canvas marks.

Taste: Its taste is direct, but at the same time subtle; a complex alliance between a slightly acidic and soft initial taste followed by a lingering after taste. The cheese gives off an aroma of nutty vegetation.

Appropriate wine: Wine of Savoie.
