Bleu d’Auvergne Fermier is a French blue cheese made from raw cow’s milk. It has characteristically veins dispersed throughout its body. The mold that forms in the cheese is a result of the production process: the cheese is pricked with long needles that allow Penicillium glaucum to form in the cheese.
The cheese matures for at least 2 weeks and develops its moist and crumbly texture. Its aroma is intense, while the flavours are pastoral, spicy, and salty, reminiscent of grass and wildflowers. Bleu d’Auvergne is strong and pungent, but to a lesser extent than other blue cheeses, it is also less salted, with a creamier and more buttery taste and a moister texture.
It pairs well with dessert wines that provide a mellow contrast to Bleu’s intensity.
Can be stored for up to 3-4 weeks in the fridge in its packaging.
Wine Pairing:
Red wines (from the Loire Valley)
White wines (Jurancon, Sauternes)

Andy Widjaja –
Taste better when heated or melted. It tastes bitter when in room temperature.
Paul C –
A very decent blue cheese – nicely balanced, not overly “blue”, so even my friends who had had bad experiences with low-quality blue cheeses previously were happy to eat some of this.
Mr. P (verified owner) –
High quality, strong how we like it.
