Chaumes

Crafted in the rolling French countryside near the banks of the Dordogne, Chaumes is a modern French classic built on time-honored Trappist-style cheesemaking traditions. Each wheel of pasteurized cow’s milk cheese is repeatedly brine-washed as it matures, developing its signature burnished, tangerine-orange rind and a supple, creamy interior.

With its smooth, springy texture and a pale gold paste, Chaumes is a recognizable classic on a cheese platter. The aromatic rind lends a soft earthiness, while the creamy interior carries full-bodied notes of toasted hazelnut, butter, and a faint tang. Rich and inviting, yet without the pungency of bolder washed-rind cheeses, Chaumes offers a mellow, approachable take on the washed-rind style.
