Under its black rind, it presents a smooth, creamy white paste with a slightly tangy taste.
A cousin to our St-Paulin, it is a bit firmer and less salty in taste.

Cheese preservation
Interior ripened cheese, Interior ripened cheese
To best preserve interior-ripened, store them in the fridge between 2-4 degrees in the paper provided.
The paper will get malleable every time it is unwrapped but will not lose its efficiency to keep the cheese fresh. It is very normal that a layer of white mold grows on the paste of the cheese, this is the natural process of the rind trying to form.
This mold is not harmful; you may remove a thin slice and keep consuming the cheese. The cheese will keep for 3-4 weeks refrigerated.
“A little gem in the region”
“In fact, some of their cheeses can be found at Costco, but most of the stronger ones need to be picked up here, and it’s well worth the trip from Montreal (about 50 minutes) near the border.
It’s local, it tastes great, and if you drive another 5 minutes, you’ll be at Lake Champlain (Venise-en-Québec).”

“A little gem for cheese lovers”
“This cheese factory impresses us every time we visit, and the cheeses are excellent no matter which one you choose. You’ll be impressed when you see the bill. At least 50% cheaper than supermarkets.”
