The Raclette Champêtre has a slightly bloomy orange rind and a smooth and supple light-beige paste. It features strong straw aromas and light fresh butter flavours with a hint of nut.

The Raclette Champêtre’s flavours intensify with grilling, but it remains a mild raclette cheese that people of all ages will enjoy.

Cheesemaker

La Fromagerie Champêtre was established in 1995 by Luc Livernoche, a former Saputo employee. The building was originally located in Repentigny and produced Cheddar and fresh cheeses. Ripened cheese production began in 2001. The family business was relocated (and expanded) in the Le Gardeur industrial park in 2003.
