Product Overview

About Comté

Comté is a renowned French cheese from the Jura region, celebrated for its complex, nutty flavours and smooth, dense texture. Made from unpasteurized cow's milk, Comté is an alpine cheese with a production process that includes traditional methods, such as aging in caves for a minimum of four months, though some varieties mature for over two years. This aging process develops layers of flavour, ranging from buttery and fruity to earthy and slightly caramelized, with subtle hints of hazelnut and brown butter. Comté's flavour profile varies with age, season, and terroir, making each wheel unique. It’s a versatile cheese, commonly used in cooking for its excellent melting quality, and is equally enjoyable on its own.
