The unique taste of the French Auvergne

The Saint Nectaire is an iconic cheese from the rugged and volcanic landscape of the French Auvergne region. This cheese has been produced with great dedication and craftsmanship for centuries. What makes the Saint Nectaire so special is that it is prepared with unpasteurized, raw cow's milk. This ensures that the rich and complex aromas of the lush mountain pastures are perfectly preserved.

During the natural ripening process, which often takes place in damp cellars, the cheese develops its characteristic gray, edible rind with occasional white, yellow or red mold spots. The dairy underneath is beautifully smooth and creamy. When you taste the Saint Nectaire, you experience a delicious combination of creaminess with a distinct earthy and nutty flavor, often accompanied by subtle notes of mushrooms and hay. It is a fantastic cheese for the cheese board, perfect in combination with a smooth red wine or a fruity white wine.

Freshly cut from the knife for the highest quality

At GoudaCheeseShop.com we treat this fragile French quality cheese with the greatest care. We only cut your piece of Saint Nectaire fresh from the whole cheese the moment you place your order. Almost immediately afterwards, we pack the cheese tightly and airtight in a vacuum. To protect the delicate raw milk structure and the rich aromas during the journey, we always ship your order with a cooling pack. This way you can immediately enjoy the very best freshness at home.

Frequently Asked Questions about Saint Nectaire

Is this cheese suitable for pregnant women?

No. Because the Saint Nectaire is made from raw (unpasteurized) cow's milk, this cheese is not recommended for pregnant women as a precaution.

Can I eat the rind of the Saint Nectaire?

Yes, the natural rind of the Saint Nectaire contributes to the characteristic earthy taste of the cheese and is certainly edible. However, if you find the taste a bit too intense, you can always cut it off.

Is this cheese suitable for vegetarians?

No, animal rennet is used in the traditional preparation of the Saint Nectaire. As a result, the cheese is not suitable for a strict vegetarian diet.
