Blue d'Auvergne is produced from milk from the area of Auvergne, where the cheese has been made for a very long time. The milk is inoculated with Penicillin Roquefort, and later as the cheese develops, it is pierced with needles with the strain on them. This cheese has an intense pattern of bluing with a moist, crumbly texture. The flavor is a balanced spicy and salty combination. Product Metrics:
