Soft washed-rind cow's milk cheese in square form. It gives off a scent described as earthy, nutty, grassy, mild funk, with a taste that’s mildly salty, creamy, grassy, nutty, and a texture that's orange-beige rind, soft and springy texture. It’s often enjoyed served with pear or honey, on warm toast, paired with cider.
