Tölzer Kasladen Tomme de Chèvre

Tölzer Kasladen Tomme de Chèvre

French goat's cheese. From the Midi-Pyrénées region, Aveyron département.
Matures for two months.
Nutty, slightly caramelised in flavour.

The name Tomme was used for all smaller and softer cheeses that were not of the Gruyères type.

This name is mainly used in Savoy, in French Switzerland, and as Toma in Piedmont. It is not clear whether the Piedmontese brought the name to Savoy or whether they took it to Piedmont.

In the Pyrenees, goat farming has not been a tradition for as long as sheep farming. Nevertheless, it has been an integral part of this region for around 150 years.

Tölzer Kasladen: 

Since 1972, Tölzer Kasladen has been importing exclusively hand-crafted cheeses of the highest quality, in order to mature them to perfection in their own maturing rooms.

All of them are high-quality, hand-crafted cheeses, without chemical additives or genetic modifications, which come from carefully selected farm and village dairies, alpine pastures and monasteries, with which Tölzer Kasladen has been working, in some cases, since it was founded.

Farming that is carried out according to strict rules, in which animals, feed and animal husbandry are carefully monitored, forms the basis for perfect milk and, ultimately, exquisite cheese.
Tölzer Kasladen now offers 200 types of cheese from 10 European countries.
