A soft, mixed rind cheese made with thermized cow's milk. It has a fresh hazelnut and mushroom taste. As it ages, the rind takes on an amber, slightly orange colour, and its flavours become more prominent. It is available from the cheese maker, in specialty grocery stores and cheese shop, and some supermarkets.
