Product details & serving guidance

Buche de Lucay, Half Pound

Delight in the unique flavors of Buche de Lucay. A goat's milk bloomy from the Berry region of France, made by Jacquin et Fils, with a fresh, rich flavor that tastes closer to milk than to a long aged cheese.

Why you'll love it

  • From the Berry — a cheese typical of the Berry, the farming country south of the Loire, where it is made by Jacquin et Fils.
  • Pasteurized goat's milk — the paste is mild for goat cheese, with a soft tang instead of a sharp one.
  • Fresh, natural flavor — the house describes it as a reflection of traditional taste, and it does taste like cream and milk first.
  • Bloomy rind — a soft white rind around a log shaped cheese, thin enough to eat without thinking about it.
  • Any time of day — the producer suggests it can be served at any meal, which is a fair summary of how easy it is to like.

How to enjoy Slice it onto a baguette with a little honey or fresh herbs, or put it out with radishes, olives and a Sauvignon Blanc. It also does well on a breakfast table with jam.

Gentle goat cheese for the people who are convinced they do not like goat cheese.
