The rich taste of the French Alps
Abondance is a cheese with a centuries-old tradition, originally from the valley of the same name in the French Alps (Haute-Savoie). This cheese is made exclusively from the raw milk of local mountain breeds such as the Abondance cow. Because the cows graze on flower-rich mountain meadows in the summer, the milk and therefore the cheese gets a particularly rich and complex aroma.
The cheese has a supple, firm texture with a beautiful amber-colored rind. The taste is a true sensation: full, slightly fruity with clear notes of hazelnut and a hint of butter. Abondance is an indispensable cheese for an authentic French cheese board, but thanks to its excellent melting properties it is also the perfect choice for a traditional cheese fondue (such as the famous Fondue Savoyarde) or over a hot casserole.
Freshly cut from the knife for an optimal taste experience
At GoudaCheeseShop.com we treat this beautiful raw milk mountain cheese with the deepest respect. As soon as you place your order, we cut the Abondance fresh from the large round cheese. Almost immediately afterwards, we pack your piece tightly and airtight in a vacuum. To protect the complex aromas and the perfect texture during the journey, we always ship your order with a cooling pack. This way you bring fresh top quality into your home.
