Considered the oldest of the Savoyard cheeses, this whole wheel of Tomme de Savoie, available at Le Delas, embodies the rural history of our mountains. Originally made for farmers' domestic consumption, it has retained its rustic character while establishing itself as an essential ingredient for your cheese platters and culinary creations.
Identity and expertise
This uncooked pressed cheese benefits from a Protected Geographical Indication (PGI), guaranteeing strong regional roots and respect for ancestral methods:
► Precision Maturing: After spending at least 35 days in cellars in the heart of Savoie or Haute-Savoie, it develops its typical grey rind, naturally bloomy and mottled.
► Aromatic Profile: Its supple paste, dotted with small holes, offers a mild, lactic flavour with hints of hazelnut and undergrowth depending on the length of ripening.
► Artisanal Heritage: Historically made from skimmed milk after butter production, it has a fat content of 28%, offering an excellent compromise between richness and lightness.
Use for Professionals
