Chaource is a traditional French soft cheese with a delicate bloomy rind, made from whole cow's milk in the Champagne region. Crafted using time-honoured methods and an unchanged recipe, it is renowned for its rich lactic flavour, earthy mushroom aroma, and wonderfully melt-in-the-mouth texture.
Young Chaource is fresh and creamy with subtle dairy notes, while further maturation reveals a smooth, supple paste with a characteristic chalky centre, developing rich buttery, hazelnut, and mushroom flavours beneath the rind. Elegant and full of character, this classic cheese is delicious served with crusty bread and pairs beautifully with Champagne or a crisp white wine.
