Fourme d'Ambert
Auvergne, France
Fourme D'Ambert is a classic cylinder shaped blue cheese from the Auvergne region of France. Patched with grey/white moulds on a natural thin rind, the interior is cream-coloured with smooth even marbling which never dominates the flavour.
The texture is rich and mellow with a subtle nutty flavour.
Pair with Sauternes or full-bodied reds, such as a Rhône Syrah.

- Description
Fourme d'Ambert is one of France's oldest cheeses. Made from cow's milk, its production dates from the Roman occupation of France 1,000 years ago, when it was reportedly made by mountain-dwellers in the lush, green, volcanic Auvergne region. There is also an unmistakable 9th-century image of Fourme d'Ambert carved in stone at La Chaume.
