Bruny Island Saint
Bruny Island Cheese Co. · Tasmania
Soft, delicate and gently oozy, becoming richer and more pungent as it ripens.
The cheese
In the central plateau of France, several soft cheeses are named after local saints. Bruny Island Saint follows their lead: a small cow's milk cheese, surface-ripened under a light, natural bloom rather than the thick white coat of commercial bries. Each cheese weighs about 160g.
Tasting notes
Young, the centre is firm and the flavour delicate, milky and mushroomy. As the curd breaks down it turns soft and oozy, and the flavour grows deeper and more pungent.
How to enjoy
Choose your moment: eat it young for something gentle, or wait for the ooze. Serve it with baguette and grapes, and pair it with a sparkling wine or a Chardonnay. Take it out of the fridge an hour before serving.
