Bound with a thin ring of bark and ripened in a traditional wooden box, Le Duc Vacherin is best enjoyed when the smooth pinkish rind starts to ripple and bulge.
This soft, surface-ripened washed rind cheese is specially made for Will in the mountains of the Franche-Comté region of France, using a recipe adapted from the seasonal spruce bound cheeses of the region.
Bound with a thin ring of bark, skilfully cut from local pine trees during the summer months, then ripened in a traditional wooden box, Le Duc Vacherin is best enjoyed when the smooth pinkish rind starts to ripple and bulge. Inside, the cheese softens to a rich, creamy melt-in-the- mouth texture with just a hint of forest.
