Product Description

Crowned the BEST CANADIAN CHEESE at the 2023 World Cheese Awards, this soft, surface-ripened and washed-rind cheese is made from pasteurized milk and cream. Its moist and supple rind ripens from the outside in, and its runny ivory interior has a fresh buttery taste with hints of mushrooms. Its creamy texture melts in the mouth, culminating in a rustic note.

The Nibbl. Bite

Nothing sets this soft cheese off like fresh green grapes and multigrain bread. Simple yet superb.

Getting Behind the Rind

CHEESE IS OUR LIFE AND IT BEGINS ON THE LAND

It was here in Saint-Raymond de Portneuf in 1842 that young Alexis Cayer settled. The land was perfect for pasture and over the years his family became master cheesemakers. Today, their specialty cheeses win the world’s most prestigious awards. Yet they're still in the same village, because their passion is still rooted in the land.
