Traditional fermier wheels are aged on rye straw in cool cellars for at least eight weeks. The natural rind takes on a mottled grey, white, and tan coat that smells of mushrooms and damp stone.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe paste is supple and ivory. It yields just slightly under the knife, with a smooth break and a faint chalk through the center on younger wheels that fades to a buttery cream line as the cheese ripens. On the palate it leads with fresh cream and salted butter, then pulls into cellar mushroom, wet hay, and a quiet hazelnut underneath. The finish is mid-length and clean, holding the earthy note for a beat before fading.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis is the cheese that built the Auvergne’s reputation. A fresh wheel in good condition is what every other semi-soft natural-rind from the region is measured against.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIngredients\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCow’s milk, salt, lactic cultures, animal rennet.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(Fermier wheels use raw milk; laitier versions may use thermized or pasteurized milk.
