Le Chèvre Noir This internationally acclaimed goat milk cheddar was first introduced in 1989 and has won several awards over the years. Chèvre Noir’s brick shape is encased with black wax, which protects the ivory, crystalline interior. Firm, dense and flaky in texture, the paste melts in your mouth with converted lactose sugars lending hints of crunch. This sharp, full-flavoured cheese has nutty, buttery and even herbal notes. It is made using vegetarian rennet (non genetically modified microbial enzyme). It is aged a minimum of one year, and is also available as a two year aged cheddar. Let it sit in your mouth for a little while, and these flavours take on a sweet, almost caramel finish. Versatile enough to try with port, ice wine, Pinot Noir, Baco Noir, Cabernet Franc, Sauvignon Blanc or a Trappist blonde beer.
