Cheese of the Month - Caruchon
Filed in archive Cheese on September 13, 2008
Caruchon is a mellow, washed rind, pasteurized sheep's milk cheese that is produced by the Papillon House in the picturesque Aveyron département of southern France.
I really love this cheese!
Caruchon has a mild, yet rich, and tangy flavor with a dense, creamy texture that becomes soft and oozing as the cheese matures.
It is super flavorful without being too strong or overwhelming.
A good wine pairing would be a fruity Beaujolais.
Murray's Cheese in New York City sells Caruchon, as does Cheeseline.com.

Just bought this cheese @ the Toronto Farmer's Market. It is wonderful. Rind is nice as well. It has a very rual feel and taste without being too overpowering.
