Sainte-Maure de Touraine is a classic in France, introduced to the inhabitants of the Sainte-Maure commune by Saracen prisoner after the Battle of Poitiers in 732. Slightly citric and buttery, Sainte-Maure de Touraine has a fresh hazelnut taste, with dry hay and underwood notes. Its white paste has a firm and mousse aspect when young, and becomes creamy and spreadable after aging. Did you know? There is a engraved rye straw in the middle of cheese to first, keep the shape of the cheese and second, attest of the AOC and get a traceability of the producer!

Nicolas Guyon –
I enjoyed the gentle citric tang and buttery richness of Sainte-Maure de Touraine, with its fresh hazelnut and dry-hay notes making every bite a simple pleasure. Spread on warm sourdough for the best tasting experience.
