This traditional PDO washed rind cheese is from the Vosges Mountains of northern France, and was once known as white meat by the monks who developed it. During the summer months, the cows are moved up to the mountain pastures to graze on the dense grass and floral diversity that gives Munster its subtle flavour.
It is matured for two months in humid mountain cellars where the rind is regularly washed in brine. Famous for its pungent smell and sticky orange rind, the interior is a fine soft and smooth consistency, with a mild creamy, meaty and slightly sweet flavour.
