Tomme de Chevre Grand-Mere Adrienne (Grandmother Adrienne) is a semi-soft artisan goat cheese from the Loire Valley region of France. Its bloomy, ashy rind is blueish-gray and boasts very strong, goaty aroma. The center is moist and fudge-like, becoming more runny and elastic as you make your way towards the rind. Once you taste the creamy texture you’ll notice fruity and hazelnut flavors with notes of lemon and buttermilk.
This delicate, citrusy cheese is made with fresh, locally sourced goat’s milk as the Fromagerie P. Jacquin & Son has for over sixty years. It’s aged for two weeks, then covered in ash. All cheeses from the fromagerie are hand-ladled into molds and are made with the same traditional recipes that have been passed down in the Loire Valley for generations.
Tomme De Chevre Grand-Mere Adriana is heavier cheese that you’ll find eaten with potatoes or melted down like a raclette. The heartiness of this cheese easily turns each round into a simple meal when combined with a fresh salad and some bread. Pair Tomme de Chevre Grand-Mere Adrienne with lighter, wheat beers or a Savoie white wine to regale in the French traditions of wine and cheese.
