This 40g cheese is distinguished by its vermiculated, slightly downy rind in an ivory hue. When cut, its dense, fudge-like texture contrasts beautifully with the rind, forming a tender crust. The aroma of hazelnut and toasted bread leads to a rich and complex flavor of goat’s milk and cream, blending sweetness with intensity. A delicate and refined cheese in a charming size.

Cheesemaker

L'Atelier Fromagerie was founded in 2011, when veteran cheesemaker Simon Hamel decided to start producing his own cheeses. From 1999 to 2011, Simon worked as a cheesemaker for several prominent Quebec cheese producers and acquired a BAC in food processing at Laval University. He gained further experience at a farmstead goat creamery in Aveyron, France, in the summers of 2008 and 2009.
