Description Postel Vieux
Meet the sublime Postel Vieux, the oldest and most distinct variant in the Postel cheese family. This Belgian abbey cheese is prepared according to historical traditions and matures in peace for at least 6 months. Thanks to this lengthy process, the cheese develops a robust, spicy flavor with soft, fruity undertones and light salt crystals. Although the taste is powerful, the texture melts wonderfully soft on the tongue.
