Montbriac, 500g

A classic Auvergne cheese, Montbriac is easily identified by its coating of ash. A soft, creamy, runny classic French cheese; mellow with wonderful salty blue tang.

Montbriac is a blue cheese although the blue veining is minimal. Some describe it as a ‘Blue Brie’ perhaps because it is round and only about an inch in height, with a creamy interior, higher fat content and a more luscious texture.

The aroma suggests mushroom, celery and garlic; the texture is supple, silky and smooth. The flavour is subtle yet salty, with just enough blue-cheese characteristics to make it interesting.

Serving Suggestions

it's an appealing cheese when ripe and oozy, a good partner for an earthy Pinot Noir or a glass of sparkling wine.
