This firm, crustless, creamy-yellow cheese is made from unpasteurized milk sourced exclusively from the island's dairy farms. This proximity allows the cheese to retain the superior aromatic qualities of milk, as well as the subtle flavours specific to the L'Isle-aux-Grues terroir. This sharp cheddar is available after one year of aging. Its paste is firmer, but melts in the mouth, and offers a clear nutty aroma.

This firm, unripened cheese is made from pasteurized milk. It is a Halloumi-type cheese that truly stands out from other similar cheeses for its distinctive slightly salty and spicy taste which comes from Middle East spices. They give it subtle aromas of star anise, cumin and coconut.

Light up the BBQ!

As it maintains its shape when heated, this cheese is perfect when grilled in the pan or in raclette, or skewered on the BBQ. Once grilled, it can be enjoyed as is, served with an auberine dip or your other favorite vegetables, or served as a salad garnish. Also try it on a refreshing aperitif skewer by combining it with watermelon and zaatar.

A must!

Add Baya, cut into small unroasted cubes, as a garnish for a hot soup. Its light coconut taste will delight your taste buds in coconut milk squash soup and Asian soups, for instance.

This firm, pressed and cooked lactose-free cheese is made from pasteurized milk. Its smooth and supple rindless surface presents round holes (eyes) spreaded throughout the paste. Emmental reveals a smell of cooked milk. In the mouth, this same lactic taste is however enhanced by subtle root vegetables (rutabaga) aromas and very light roasting (heated milk, grilled almond) pleasant notes. Add personality to your dishes! Just like St-Guillaume Swiss, the Emmental has remarkable melting properties. It dissolves easily in sauces and fondues. Its slightly sharper taste makes it an excellent recipe enhancer. It adds a lot of personality to a mac ‘n’ cheese, grilled paninis and burgers, just to name a few!

Ingredients : pasteurized partly skimmed milk, bacterial culture, salt, microbial enzyme, calcium chloride.

The perfect enhancer!
