In the past, farmers created the ”Jura wheel’s” to keep the milk longer during the winter and have this protein source all year long for all their family. These wheels were easier to carry around and to sell. The recipe of the Comté we know nowadays was introduced in the XVIII century. Considerate as the biggest production with 66500 tonnes of cheese annualy, the best sellers can get different flavours depending on its age. The older the Comté is, the stronger the flavour is. Comté AOP 36 months is one of the most intense you can find in our offer. Buttery with some roasted and caramely nuts flavours, its crumbly and crunchy texture is due to the development of Amino acid crystals during its maturation that draws its profil. Bite on some dark chocolate with this Comté to discover a stunning pairing!
Wine Pairing:
Red wine, especially Burgundy (Puligny Montrachet, Meursault)
Dry white wines (Chablis), Vin Jaune from Jura
