The pride of the French mountains
The Comté cheese is undoubtedly one of the most loved cheeses from France. This hard mountain cheese is exclusively produced in the Jura Mountains. The fresh, raw milk of local Montbéliarde or French Simmental cows is used for the preparation. Because the milk remains unpasteurized, the cheese perfectly captures the aromas of the lush flowers and herbs that the cows eat in the mountains.
During ripening in the special maturing cellars, the Comté develops its characteristic, complex flavor. This is rich, full-bodied and beautifully balanced with notes of roasted nuts, melted butter and a hint of sweet fruit. The texture is firm but melts wonderfully in the mouth. It is a fantastic cheese for a luxurious cheese board, as a savory snack, but also an absolute star in a classic cheese fondue.
The popular everyday size: enough for sandwiches and a cheese board. Need more or less? See all weights of Comté Doux AOP 6 Months.
Freshly cut, vacuum-packed and shipped cooled
Your 500 g piece is cut fresh only after you order, and vacuum-packed straight away. The cheese is then shipped cooled to your door. Keep the cheese in the fridge and take it out about half an hour before serving to get the most flavour.
Frequently Asked Questions about Comté cheese
Is this cheese suitable for pregnant women?
No, as a precaution we advise against this. Comté is traditionally prepared with raw, unpasteurized cow's milk. Pregnant women are better off avoiding raw milk cheeses.
Can I use Comté for cheese fondue?
Yes, certainly! Comté is one of the classic ingredients for a traditional cheese fondue. The cheese melts fantastically and gives the fondue a wonderfully rich, nutty and creamy taste.
What is the difference between Comté and Gruyère?
Although they look similar and both come from mountainous areas, Comté comes from the French Jura and Gruyère from Switzerland. Comté is often slightly sweeter and fruitier, while Gruyère can be a bit more savory and saltier.
