Product details & serving guidance

Crottin de Chevre

Delight in the unique flavors of Crottin de Chevre. A small goat cheese in the Loire Valley crottin style, made with pasteurized goat's milk and sold as a creamy little round with a soft, sweet start.

Why you'll love it

  • Pasteurized goat's milk — goat's milk, starters, rennet and salt, and nothing else on the ingredient list.
  • Loire Valley — the style comes from the Loire, the region famous for its castles, its wines and its cheese.
  • Soft when young — sweet and soft in its first weeks, which is how most people like it.
  • Sharper with age — left alone it gets harder and more pungent, which is the other way to like it.
  • Two cheeses in one — buy one for tonight and one to forget in the fridge for a week.

How to enjoy Eat it with Sancerre, on a board with fruit, or as dessert with a little honey. It is also the cheese to crumble warm over a salad of bitter greens.

Small, modest and honest. Every cheese case should have one.
