Buche de Chèvre

Buche de Chèvre is a popular soft-ripened goat cheese produced in Poitou in France’s Loire Valley, a region renowned for its world-class goat cheeses. Its exterior is surrounded by a hard, edible crust that is coated with a gorgeous bloomy white mold. The cheese’s interior is similarly bright white with a mildly tangy flavor dotted with sweet notes of caramel. Its interior texture is a nice contrast to the rind; it is soft and creamy with a pleasantly flaky core that melts in the mouth.

Enjoy Buche de Chèvre grilled on toast for a light meal or use to dress up quiches and canapés. It also makes a delightful pairing for a crisp Pinot Grigio.
