Vacherin Mont Dor, Cows Milk, 400g-800g

Vacherin Mont Dor 84837 is a 400g to 800g Vacherin Mont d’Or AOP, the most celebrated seasonal French cheese, produced in the Jura mountains from August to March and wrapped in spruce bark. Vacherin Mont Dor 84837 is the greatest seasonal cheese in the world. As a result, baking in its wooden box at 180°C for 20 minutes creates a fondue-like experience of extraordinary richness. Furthermore, the spruce bark adds a subtle forest note. In particular, serve with a spoon and nothing more than good bread alongside.

About Vacherin Mont Dor 84837

We source French soft cheese from specialist affineurs and fermier producers across Normandy, Burgundy, Savoie and the Rhône-Alpes. In particular, fermier production means the cheese is made on the farm with a single herd. As a result, a Camembert de Normandie fermier is a fundamentally different product from a supermarket version. Furthermore, the great washed-rind cheeses of France — Epoisses, Munster, Langres and Livarot — have a pungency and depth no other cheese style matches. However, soft cheeses are at their best at room temperature — allow 45 to 60 minutes out of the fridge before serving. In particular, AOP and DOP certification guarantees genuine French origin. Additionally, every cheese here benefits from the finest bread and a complementary wine. That commitment to fermier quality defines every soft French cheese we offer. That is why this product from The Artisan Food Company consistently impresses even the most discerning cheese lovers.

Why Choose Vacherin Mont Dor 84837 From Us

Using French soft and washed-rind cheese well requires one essential habit: patience. In contrast to serving straight from the fridge, soft cheese at room temperature has an entirely different flavour and texture. As a result, always remove soft cheese at least 45 minutes to 1 hour before serving. Furthermore, a ripe Brie or Camembert should wobble and feel almost liquid at the centre. However, washed-rind cheeses smell considerably stronger than they taste — the aroma is a poor guide to the flavour. In particular, the Langres crater is designed to receive Champagne or Burgundy at the table. Moreover, baking Vacherin, Camembert or St Marcellin at 180°C creates a molten experience. Additionally, always serve on a board with good bread — nothing else is needed. That room temperature patience and good bread define how to serve these magnificent cheeses.

How to Serve Vacherin Mont Dor 84837

To get the very best from it:

• Bake in the wooden box at 180°C for 20 minutes after scoring the rind in a cross.
• Spoon directly onto warm bread or boiled new potatoes at the table like a fondue.
• Furthermore, pour a small measure of dry white wine into the scored rind before baking.
• Additionally, serve alongside cornichons, cured meats and boiled potatoes.

Perfect Pairings

This product pairs beautifully with:

• Good French bread or boiled new potatoes spooned with the molten cheese.
• A glass of Jura Chardonnay, Vin Jaune or a dry Savoie white alongside.
• Cornichons and French charcuterie — jambon sec, saucisson — alongside.
• A good dry white Burgundy as an alternative alongside.

Storage: Keep refrigerated. Furthermore, consume within 5 to 7 days, checking the use-by date. However, always remove from the fridge 45 to 60 minutes before serving. Soft cheese is at its best at full room temperature.

However you serve it, Vacherin Mont Dor 84837 brings a character that only genuine artisan cheese can deliver. Moreover, great cheese always rewards good bread, the right wine and serving at room temperature.
