Traditionally this cheese was produced from milk only around the town of Ambert but now the AOC status includes the Montbrison region as well as others. The word fourme refers to the wooden mold or form that shapes the cheese into a small Cylindrical shape. It is a smooth, creamy cheese with sweet, fruity flavor. Product Metrics:
