Description
Bucheron Goat Cheese is soft, but semi-firm in texture. This cheese when young provides a mild flavor that becomes sharper as it matures. It is a good cheese for salads or for snacking.

Bucheron Wheel Size: 3lb
When nothing else but goat cheese will do, think Bucheron from the Loire Valley. The French are experts when it comes to crafting this elegant cheese, which can be used in a wide variety of ways, from casual salads and snacks, to sophisticated conglomerations of cheese for special-occasion cocktail parties.
Bucheron’s mild flavor becomes sharper as it ages, so be sure to check the age when making your purchase. Pair this semi-soft cheese with nutty, whole-grain crackers, grapes, and crusty breads, or sprinkle it over a salad of spinach, bacon and walnuts, dressed with raspberry vinaigrette. In a pinch, Bucheron makes a quick, satisfying snack when eaten on its own, with a warming cup of hearty black tea on a blustery winter afternoon.
Champagne, or other sparkling white wines bring out the bright, almost citrusy flavors of a young Bucheron. Try pairing sweeter wines such as Riesling or Vouvray to compliment a more mature iteration of this creamy, buttery-textured delicacy.
Ideal Cheese is your source for exceptional Bucheron cheese direct from the Loire Valley.

Notes About Our Shipping Schedule

Shipping Cheese
Shipping cheese is unlike shipping a bottle of olive oil or a box of cookies, and to insure that it arrives in the same palatable condition it was in when it left us, we take a few simple precautions. We wrap your cheese in plastic wrap and foil. We package your cheese in a corrugated box with cold packs sufficient to ensure that your cheese arrives in the right environment. If the ultimate destination of your cheese is unusually warm we may insist that your package be shipped overnight.Some of our more perishable products may require one of our expedited shipping methods (especially if shipped during warm weather or to a warm destination). So please use your best discretion when selecting your shipping option.
Selecting your Products
We gather the products in your order as soon as possible after receiving your order but not too far in advance of the ship date if your order includes perishable items. If you are unfamiliar with buying artisan cheese, please be aware that some of the products we send you will have a variety of molds growing on the rind. We find that these molds add character to the cheese in terms of looks, texture and taste. If you happen to be put off by the rind, simply don't eat it - enjoy the heart of the cheese or l'âme (the soul) as the French would say.
