The first mention of Morbier dates back to 1765. Originally, cheesemakers used leftover milk from Comté production to create this unique cheese. Morbier’s distinctive character comes from its making process in two layers: a first layer of morning milk curd, followed by a layer of evening milk curd. Between the two, a thin layer of wood ash is sprinkled to protect the curd from insects as it rests.
Morbier is creamy and nutty, with delightful milky and herbaceous notes. Whether enjoyed raw or melted as Raclette, it is sure to please cheese lovers of all ages!
Pair Morbier beautifully with aromatic white wines like Gewürztraminer, which complements its tropical fruit notes, or with a light, earthy Pinot Noir that enhances its nutty and bitter flavours. For a local touch, Jura wines with their spicy minerality also offer a perfect balance.
Wine Pairing:
Red wines (Cotes du Rhone, Barolo, Brunello, Chianti)
White wines (Chardonnay, Gewurztraminer, Tokay Pinot Gris)
Sparkling wines (Champagne, Prosecco)

Nicolas Guyon –
Creamy, nutty delight with subtle herbaceous notes and its signature layer of wood ash, making it a versatile cheese that’s as delicious melted
CC Teoh –
Absolutely love it. Creamy and complex with a hint of blue cheese and very savoury. Perfect.

Morbier is a gentle and delicious cheese, easy to eat every day with crackers, and can also be melted nicely as a topping for potatoes and sausages. Although it has a vein, it’s actually ash used in the method and does not at all have any hints of blue cheese flavour.

Marine –
A good substitute to Raclette
