Sainte Maure de Touraine has been one of the favorite cheeses of the French since the Middle Ages. Present on the tables of kings for centuries, its reputation continues to grow in France and internationally! This cheese is produced in our beautiful region of the Center of France.

Produced from goat's milk, raw and whole, this small round cheese dates back to the end of the 19th century. Hand molded, it is ashed with a mixture of charcoal and salt, then matured for about 10 days. Its crust is then adorned with bluish moulds. On the palate, it reveals well-developed goat aromas, linked to the quality of the hay from the Cher Valley consumed by the goats.
Our Valençay AOP Verneuil cheese is made from local raw and whole milk. Once unmoulded, it is salted and ashed with charcoal. Its delicious soft texture, with a light gray to bluish gray rind, contains 22% fat. Its paste is fine and unctuous and can be tasted from the 11th day fresh. For longer, the latter becomes slightly brittle.
Did you know ? The story goes that Valençay cheese was originally a pyramid-shaped cheese. When Talleyrand, residing at the Château de Valençay, wanted to offer some to Napoleon, he had the pointed top cut off so as not to remind him of his defeat in Egypt. Hence its current truncated pyramid shape. Historically made in Berry, the Pyramid of Valençay is produced in an area which extends mainly over the department of Indre and some municipalities of the bordering departments of Cher, Indre-et-Loire and Loir-et-Cher.
