An Evening of Comforting Cheeses
Winter definitely puts us in the mood for cozy, relaxed evenings spent in the company of a spectacular meal. This beautiful platter of comforting cheeses is a perfect ending to a delicious dinner.
First Course
Oka
OKA. Now we’re dealing with a celebrity! This esteemed cheese is known for its fruit and hazelnut flavour that intensifies with age, leaving a consistently fresh taste in your mouth.
Tomme de Grosse-Île
This non-pasteurized, semi-soft, brushed crust cheese is well matured and its woody aroma and lightly acidulated flavour sways towards fruity. Tomme de Grosse-Île has a buttery fragrance and hazelnut taste, which peps up as it ages. It is also reminiscent of the rich and salty notes of parmesan.
