Saint-Nicolas

This cheese is made by the Orthodox monks of the Saint-Nicolas de la Dalmerie monastery in the Hérault, in the south of France, who carry on an artisan cheesemaking tradition. Their skill and their faithfulness to traditional methods give the Saint-Nicolas de la Dalmerie its quality and authenticity.

The cheese comes in a rectangular shape, with a natural rind lightly dusted with bloom. It is also available in a camembert-style format, known as the Tominette de la Dalmerie.

With a little ageing, the paste turns soft and creamy, melting in the mouth, while younger it is smooth and dense at the core. Flavoured with essence of thyme, which lends it the sunlit scents of the South along with notes of rosemary, this ewe’s milk cheese is all gentleness, freshness, and finesse.
