Product Details

This cheese is known for its rich, savoury flavours, often described as having hints of mushroom and a satisfying, meaty character. It’s crafted from sweet Alpine milk and has a firm, smooth texture. Its name, which translates to ‘Monk’s Head,’ comes from its rounded shape, said to resemble a monk’s shaved head. Traditionally, it’s enjoyed in fine, delicate curls created using a special tool called a Girolle, which helps release the cheese’s deliciously sweet aroma and unique texture.

Ingredients: Raw cow’s milk, salt, starter cultures, rennet.
