An ingot of pure goat’s milk with a flaky, fudgy texture and a wrinkled rind. The goats graze on meadows studded with thyme and this is clearly evident in the taste of the cheese, which is light, gently earthy with the richness of the milk and a herbal essence at the end. A perfect handmade cheese from the monastery at La Dalmerie under the supervision of Father Marcel, in the heart of Hérault. The season runs from spring to autumn.
