Cheese Review: Cantalet, cow’s milk, France

March 8th, 2008

The cheese on the right is Cantalet.

From the www.artisanalcheese.com description:

Cantalet, an ancestor to British Farmhouse Cheddars, is a cow’s milk cheese from Auvergne, France. It is weighty, moist, creamy and just subtly sharp with a very defined sweet and milky quality. Pairs well with Merlot, Pinot Noir and whites from Sauvignon Blanc to Gewürztraminer. 

The cheese snob says: Definitely reminds you of a farmhouse cheddar, but I prefer the child rather than the parent. B

The casual cheese eater says: More please. A.
