Protected by its Appellation d’Origine Protégée (AOP) status, Fourme d’Ambert must be made using traditional methods, ensuring the highest quality and authenticity. This unpasteurised version enhances the cheese’s natural complexity, allowing for a more nuanced, earthy, and slightly fruity depth of flavour. Unlike sharper blue cheeses, Fourme d’Ambert offers a mild, buttery profile with hints of mushrooms, toasted nuts, and subtle sweetness, creating an elegant and versatile cheese.
Ideal for cheeseboards, crumbling over salads, or melting into sauces, Fourme d’Ambert pairs beautifully with sweet dessert wines like Sauternes or a well-aged Port, as well as crusty bread, walnuts, and ripe pears. Its creamy texture makes it a luxurious addition to steaks, pasta dishes, or gourmet tarts.
At Cheesemongery.com, we source only the finest unpasteurised Fourme d’Ambert AOP, ensuring the best quality, full traceability, and an authentic taste of the Auvergne. Experience the perfect balance of mild blue intensity and creamy indulgence - order yours today.
