Matured Soumaintrain PGI 200g

Soumaintrain is an orange raw cow's milk cheese that comes in a round shape in a wooden box to prevent it from leaking.
It owes its name to the village where it was born in the 12th century, in the heart of the Armance valley in Yonne.
Its production, very distinctive, is similar to that of Époisses. Essential difference: the Soumaintrain is not refined with alcohol but with water. It is refined between 7 and 8 weeks.
Tasted raw with a turn of the pepper mill, it will reveal its best aromas.
For cooking, present it with a green salad and a few hot croutons.
