Chèvre Noir is a cheddar type true maturing Goat cheese, which means it ages gracefully. It is ripened for a minimum of two year before being sold. The flavours of Chèvre Noir are complex and rich, ranging from sweet to nutty with a caramel aftertaste. One of its characteristics is a slight crunch within the creamy texture due to lactose crystals, which provide added flavour and develop in small pockets within the cheese.
