Le compostelle
Description
Compostelle, crafted by Fromagerie de Loubressac, is a unique goat's milk cheese inspired by the Camino de Santiago de Compostela and its scallop shell emblem. Sourced from 46 local producers in the Lot region, this cheese reflects the journey of pilgrims through historic landscapes.
The first bite delivers a vibrant and zesty flavour, highlighting the uniqueness of fresh goat's milk. As the cheese melts in your mouth, you'll detect gentle undertones of lemon zest and a light nutty essence, enriching the overall experience with layers of depth and complexity.
Compostelle is characterized by its white color and smooth, light texture, offering a fresh goat's cheese taste. As it matures, it becomes drier with a more pronounced flavour.
