A double cream brie-style cheese with an ash coating and a bloomy rind.

The ash gives it a pleasant earthy flavor with a buttery aftertaste, and the bloomy rind provides a final taste of fresh mushrooms.

Préservation
  • “This is THE cheese factory par exellence”

    We stopped to see what it was. What a surprise—it’s the largest variety of cheese I’ve ever seen. You can taste them. The prices are very affordable, if not better than at the grocery store. It’s a must-see. Definitely worth the detour.

  • “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.
