Le St-Félicien Lac-Saint-Jean
Fromagerie Ferme des Chutes
Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean
Le St-Félicien is similar to Brick and Colby. This lactose-free, rindless, semi-soft, pale yellow-coloured cheese is made of whole milk that is pasteurized at a low temperature to maintain its nutritional and digestive qualities, and interior-ripened for two months. It has a very delicate and complex flavour, with notes from the various wild and forage crops used to feed the herd of Holstein dairy cows, as well as hints of butter and a light hazelnut and almond finish. It can be eaten plain or with crackers, and serves equally well at receptions and at snack time. This cheese satisfies the most discerning palates.
It is available from the cheese maker and in grocery stores throughout the region.
