Bleu d’Auvergne – Half Wheel (Approx. 1.4kg)
Bleu d’Auvergne was first created in the mid-19th century by an innovative farmer who experimented by blending mouldy rye bread with milk. This artisanal version is produced by Fromagère du Livradois, a respected third-generation cheesemaker and one of the few family-owned dairies crafting all five PDO cheeses of the Auvergne region.
This renowned French blue cheese is known for its assertive flavour, spicy aroma, and luxuriously smooth texture. Traditionally enjoyed paired with sweet dessert wines from Auvergne, it beautifully balances sweetness and spice.
