Description
This Comté, made by La Famille Sancey-Richard and aged by Fromagerie Beillevaire, features a natural brown rind and a yellow paste with white hues, the result of milk protein crystallization during maturation. The buttery texture and rich, intense flavors offer notes of roasted coffee and dried fruits. Made from Montbéliarde or Simental cows, this unpasteurized, pressed, and cooked cheese is suitable for pregnant women. Aged for 30-36 months, Beillevaire ages the cheeses in their Vieu D'Izenav cellar at a consistent humidity of 95% and a temperature of 12-13°C year-round.
Considered one of the finest cheeses in the world, a wedge of Comte reveals a pale yellow interior and a texture that can vary from silky and smooth to grainy. Aged for around 3 years, this cheese develops crispy crystals called, Tyrosine and it's flavour is much stronger than 24 month Comte. At this age, the Comte is definitely for a particular taste and will not please all palettes.
