Bleu d'Auvergne

Frank and balanced, we love the Bleu d'Auvergne for its aromas of wild mushrooms, cream and undergrowth. Its melting and unctuous taste gives it a unique character that improves according to its ripening or its temperature

With its ivory white color, dotted with blue-green mold (Penicillium Roqueforti) and its fine bloomy rind that may show some of the same hue, the Bleu d'Auvergne is characterized by its regular marbling. *

Texture: firm and slightly supple

Taste: pronounced, not excessively salty

Flavor: pleasant to pronounced

We know little about the true origin of Bleu d'Auvergne, several versions compete. It is said that it was created in the XIXth century west of Clermont-Ferrand by an Auvergne farmer, who sowed curd with mold formed on rye bread, and then pierced with a needle.
