The French Style Range

Caledon

A white mould cheese, similar to Camembert. Named after the Caledon River which forms the border between South Africa & Lesotho.

It is a creamy cheese that will “run” and become stronger with age.

Available in +/- 250g rounds.

 

Chouky

This is a white mould cheese, similar to a Brie. It is milder than the Caledon with a slight mushroom taste. Named after Valerie’s late grandmother.

Available in +/- 1.7Kg rounds or in wedges.

Rouge

A small white mould cheese with a layer of smoked Paprika in the middle, hence the name Rouge (meaning red in French).  

Available in +/- 130g rounds.

Terroir

Nowadays, most cheeses are made adding starter cultures to the milk. Terroir is not. It is made in the traditional way, relying only on the good bacteria, yeasts and moulds naturally present in the milk.

Terroir is an Alpine-style cheese, similar to a Tomme.

Available in +/- 1.8kg rounds or in wedges.

Drunk Bishop

This cheese started as a “flop”. But when Valerie tasted it, it reminded her of the French Pont l’Eveque cheese. Eveque means bishop in French, hence the name.

It is a washed rind, which gives it its orange colour. The rind is washed regularly with Clarens Brewery’s IPA beer. And this is how the Bishop got drunk! It has a strong smell and a generous flavour with a hint of fruitiness.

Available in +/- 350g squares.
