This tasty goat cheese, known in English as spiced Cabri, is
made entirely by hand in Les Deux-Sevres, right next to the
Atlantic Ocean. An aromatic blend of herbs from Provence
coats the Chèvre aux epices (literally meaning Goat cheese
with spices).
The fresh goat cheese has a tangy bite and an inviting bouquet. An artisanal cheese, Chèvre aux epices is best enjoyed on rustic bread with a glass of smoky Chardonay, or red wine. |
Chèvre aux epices is known for its fresh center, pure white color and delicate
texture. The cheese is robed with a savory blend of spices that includes
peppercorns, mustard, sweet pepper, onion, parsley and chili pepper. These
spices not only give the cheese its unique flavor, but also its mouth-watering
aroma.Made from pasteurized goat’s milk, the cheese is drained and ventilated. Its wonderful taste can be attributed to the fact that only the rich-tasting milk of grass-fed goats and all-natural and local ingredients are used. For a quick – and delicious – appetizer, spread Chèvre aux epices over toasted baguette slices, or fresh country bread. Pair it with one of the rather strong red wines from the Côte du Rhône, including Cote Rotie, Hermitage, or St-Joseph. |

St. Agur (pronounced Sant ah-GOOR), easily recognizable by its octagonal shape, is made from pasteurized cow’s milk in the village of Monts du Velay. It entices you with its naked butteriness and delicate sharpness.
It contains 60% butter cream, thus qualifying it also as a double-cream cheese. In other words, every bite is sinful. Mild in flavor and not too salty in comparison to other blues, St. Agur appeals to many palettes. Due to its creaminess, it melts and spreads easily.
Put a thin slice in your salad or burger or spread it on fresh baguette. It also melts quickly in sauces. Serve with Chardonnay, Syrah, Port, or Vouvray Moelleux.
