Cantal Entre Deux (AOP/PDO) - 1.8kg

Produced in the Auvergne region, this cheese is one of France’s oldest protected cheeses, with a history dating back over 2,000 years. As a cheese with Appellation d’Origine Protégée (AOP) status - the French equivalent of Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) - every wheel of Cantal must be crafted using local cow’s milk, following strict traditional methods to ensure authenticity and quality.

Aged for 3 to 7 months, Cantal Entre-Deux sits between the younger Cantal Jeune (mild, aged 30–60 days) and the fully matured Cantal Vieux (aged over 8 months, sharper and more intense). This semi-aged variety develops a firm yet supple paste, offering a buttery, nutty taste with hints of fresh grass and cellar-aged complexity. The flavour is more pronounced than young Cantal, with a subtle tang that deepens as it ripens, making it a perfect balance between mild creaminess and aged intensity.

Highly versatile, Cantal Entre-Deux can be enjoyed on its own, melted into rustic French dishes like Aligot or Auvergne-style gratins, or paired with fresh fruit, crusty bread, and cured meats. It complements bold reds such as Côtes du Rhône or Bordeaux, as well as cider or a light farmhouse ale.
