Cheese preservation

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.

Preservation
  • “Well worth the detour!”

    We really had a great stay! The staff were very efficient and pointed out several kinds of cheese. We found the prices to be reasonable and of a high standard. The store sells bread, chocolate and other products. The grocery store was easy to find after crossing the border into Alburg, Vermont.

  • “Always a pleasure”

    Even today, it was a pleasure to pick up our cheeses. Outstanding service! They are attentive and we have the full attention of the person who serves us. The cheeses are magnificently good and the prices are more than interesting. My kids love going there. They’re always happy to taste and even ask for other cheeses.
