Originally, Morbier was made by small dairy farmers who would use the leftover curd from the morning milking, sprinkle it with vegetal ash to preserve it, and then add the evening curd on top, creating its iconic two-layered structure. Today, this tradition is still followed, giving Morbier its smooth, supple texture and balanced flavour, which starts mild and creamy before developing delicate nutty, grassy, and slightly smoky notes.
Aged for a minimum of 45 days, Morbier Farmhouse AOP has a buttery, melt-in-the-mouth consistency, making it perfect for cheeseboards, melting into gratins, or enjoying with a crusty baguette. It pairs beautifully with light Jura wines like Chardonnay or Vin Jaune, which complement its earthy and slightly tangy undertones.
