Capri Lezeen
Capri Lezeen is a French cheese hailing from the marshy parts of Poitou. The cheese is made from goat's milk and it's usually left to age for 2 to 3 weeks. This aged fresh cheese has a sticky rind with traces of blue mold, and it's traditionally sold wrapped in chestnut leaves and packaged in a wooden box.
The texture is creamy and runny, while the flavors and aromas are nutty and goaty. It's recommended to pair the cheese with Sancerre or Viognier and serve it with berries or fresh figs.
