Traditionally this goat cheese comes from the Touraine region of the Loire Valley, and bears an AOC under the full name Of Sainte~Maure de Touraine. Under the AOC designation it is made with raw milk, though the exported versions are pasteurized. It is always made in the shape of a log, with a piece of straw in the center to hold it together during aging and to ventilate The interior. The exterior has a dusting of ash. It is edible at many ages, from fresh and tangy to well aged, dry and robust. As it ages, it develops edible blue and white molds that contribute to the complexity of flavor. The "Berceau" version is the Same cheese with a little more age and mold, which is packaged in its own individual wooden crate for proper Ripening. Our Case comes with 3/4 lb Logs.
