A Cheese That Evolves Over Time

Edith is as versatile as she is delicious. Depending on her stage of maturity, this cheese offers a range of textures and flavors:

  • When Young
    Beneath its delicate, ash-coated rind, Edith has a chalky, firm texture with mild aromas. The flavor profile is fresh, nutty, and savory, making it a perfect introduction to this elegant style of cheese.

  • When Aged
    As Edith matures, she becomes smoother, velvety, and even runny, offering a truly indulgent experience. The flavors intensify, bringing out more complex savory notes, along with a luscious, buttery finish. The transformation highlights the cheese’s sexy, sophisticated charm.

Flavor and Texture

Edith’s texture transitions from firm and chalky when young to luxuriously gooey and creamy as she ages. Her flavor is mild and nutty early on, with hints of fresh milk and hazelnuts. Over time, the cheese develops deeper, more complex flavors, with subtle earthiness and a savory tang that lingers on the palate.

Pairing Suggestions

  • Food: Pair Edith with fresh figs, a drizzle of honey, or toasted walnuts. She also shines alongside crusty sourdough bread or as the centerpiece of a decadent grazing platter.
  • Wine: Pair with a crisp Sauvignon Blanc, a dry Champagne, or a fruity Chenin Blanc. For a bolder option, try a light-bodied Pinot Noir or a refreshing dry cider.

To resume

Edith is more than a cheese—she’s an experience. From her ash-coated rind to her ever-changing texture and flavor, she reflects the artistry and passion behind her creation. Whether enjoyed young and mild or aged and indulgent, Edith promises to captivate cheese lovers with every bite.

Ingredients: Pasteurised goat's milk, salt, cultures, non animal rennet.
