Shipping Information

Chaource is a soft bloomy cow's milk cheese made in Burgundy France. This cheese is named after the Chaource village in the Champagne-Ardenne region, where it has been produced since the Middle Ages. While young, the flavour is simliar to creme fraiche with a lactic tang, that becomes earthier and more pronounced as it ripens.
