  • About

A hardy traveller since early Roman times, Roquefort is made with ewe’s milk and mouldy bread, hand mixed, packed into glazed earthenware moulds, and matured in the natural caves of the Rouerge district of France, where moist winds called fleurines” impart their own flavour and quality to this world-famous cheese. Pliny described the delights of Roquefort in the first century; Charlemagne claimed it as one of his special favourites; and nearer our own time, Curnonsky, France’s prince of gastronomes, chose it as the finest cheese to bring out the best in France’s great wines.
