Tomme de Savoie

Tomme de Savoie is a traditional semi-hard mountain cheese from the French Alps, protected by an IGP designation. Made from raw cow's milk sourced from cows grazing on the alpine pastures of Savoie, it develops a distinctive gray, sometimes mold-dusted rind that tells the story of a natural aging process in mountain cellars.

The flavor is mildly fruity and nutty, with a subtle earthy undertone that evokes the mountain meadows. The texture is supple and elastic, with small holes that point to an artisanal production process. Tomme de Savoie is an honest, unfussy mountain cheese that captures the essence of its terroir. Versatile on the table: just as good on bread as on a cheese board or melted into a dish.

Pairs well with: a glass of Savoie wine (Apremont), a light amber beer, or a dry cider. Delicious on bread, melted into a tartiflette, or on a cheese board alongside dried sausage. Pair it with the Morbier for a mountain cheese duo, or the Comte Reserve for another French classic.
