"charolais" news and stories

When it comes to cheese consumption, measuring the depths of taste is no easy task. Take a demi-sec (medium-aged) French goat's milk cheese like Charolais from Burgundy. It has a bright grassy aroma and a smooth, firm paste that melts on the palate, giving way to several different taste sensations that are all mildly citrus-like and "goaty."

At first, the cheese seems to be fairly mild, making it the perfect goat's milk cheese for the sensitive palate. However, after the cheese is swallowed, its flavor resonates and increases in strength, accumulating deep floral and grassy notes. In other words, it has a kick that lasts for a bit.
