Tome des Bauges

In 1807, the Prefect Barante defined Tome des Bauges as the cheese of the «countrysides», and «that we cannot do without at every meal».
Tome des Bauges is an uncooked pressed cheese made from raw and whole cow’s milk. On the nose, the Tomette of Bauges smells mushrooms, cellar, and wet undergrowth. On the palate, we note rather lactic and fruity flavours, then the mushrooms at the end of the tasting.
