Description

Saint Nectaire 

Saint Nectaire AOC (or St. Nectaire), a semi-soft, washed-rind cheese hailing from the Auvergne region of France, is made from either raw or pasteurized cow's milk, sourced primarily from breeds like Salers or Montbéliarde. The cheese undergoes a distinctive uncooked curd process, contributing to its unique texture.

Distinguished with the prestigious AOC designation, Saint Nectaire undergoes a maturation period lasting six to eight weeks. Throughout this process, the cheeses are washed with salted water and regularly turned over to cultivate the specific orange-grey rind. To impart a distinct pungency, the cheeses are aged on rye straw. The resulting paste is soft and aromatic, showcasing a creamy colour. Saint Nectaire's flavour profile carries subtle hints of hazelnut.
