Story

Chabert cheese dairies use rich and creamy milk from the mountainous region of Savoie France. The milk used to produce Flocon de Savoie comes from the local breeds in the surrounding farms near the dairy. Before leaving the farms, the milk is scrupulously checked and again analysed before being poured into the tanks before its transformation into this lovely little delicate cheese. The Flocon de Savoie is matured in a cellar to reveal a delicate pattern on its rind. To fully develop its flavour during this period and promote even texture, the Flocon is turned by hand every 2 days.

Producer

Chabert produces traditional cheeses from Savoie. Their milk come from local farms focused on traditional pasture grazing and whose practices respect to sustainability in the landscape biodiversity. The milk is produced by local heritage breed cows adapted to the mountains terrain and climate. The three cow breeds Chabert works with are the Abondance, Tarine and Montbeliarde. The cows are free to roam their mountainous pastures to feed on a array of grasses, flora and fauna producing rich milk perfect for cheese making.
