L'Artisan Le Rouge (Organic)

A bright orange washed-rind cheese made in Australia from a traditional French recipe. Le Rouge slowly breaks down to a rich and gooey texture as it ages, developing an oozy straw-coloured paste and a beautiful unctuous texture after 3 to 4 weeks of maturation.

With a quite sharp aroma and a subtle meaty flavour, this cheese is perfect for those who prefer bold character. Compared to the famous French Epoisses de Bourgogne, Le Rouge is milder in flavour and aroma with a slightly firmer texture.
