Le Marechal is a raw cow's milk cheese produced in small batches in the town of Corcelles-aux-Payernes. Aged for 5 months, at the beginning of the third month the cheese is rubbed with Herbes de Provence (a blend of thyme, oregano and other country herbs) giving it a beautiful appearance and spicy flavor. The texture of this farmhouse cheese is that of a Gruyere-style cheese, firm and dense. Its exceptional flavor is herbaceous and nutty with great depth. Product Metrics:
