Chaource AOC

What’s it like? Chaource cheese has a thick rind with a reddish hint and a lovely buttery interior. The taste is quite strong and similar to a Neufchatel.

Where’s it from? Made only in the Champagne region our version is affineured by Jacques Hennart.

Packaging: This is the AOC UNPASTEURISED wrapped 250g circular whole cheese.

Chaource is also available as part of The French Cheese Selection Box and The Gorgeous Gift Box for Her. You can also find it in The Continental Cheese Hamper and The Deluxe Cheese Hamper.
