Agnès O'Lait Galait Natural

Agnès Spielhofer Béroud created the Galait with her husband Florian Spielhofer – winner in the "Soft Cheese with Washed Rind" category at the 11th Swiss Cheese Awards! Agnès's father, Michel Béroud, passed on his passion for cheese to his daughter. He notably produces the Tomme Fleurette, which is featured here. The Galait is a mountain cheese made from silage-free raw milk from the Mont Crosin region. The milk is rich in the floral flavours of the Jura terroir. In summer, the cows graze at an altitude of over 1,000 m, where numerous aromatic herbs can be found. In winter, they are fed hay, with the hay reserves already having been laid in during the summer. Its shape resembles a pebble ("galet"), hence its name. This new specialty features a soft, very creamy, even runny texture, combined with delicate yet robust milky aromas. A delicious cheese for dessert, served with apples or grapes.
