Clochette

Clochette is a French cheese hailing from the region of Poitou-Charentes. The cheese is made from goat's milk and it's usually left to age for 2 to 3 weeks in cellars before consumption. The name of the cheese means little bell, referring to its conical shape.


Underneath its dry wrinkly rind, the texture is tender, smooth, creamy, and firm. The aromas are pleasant, hay-like, and goaty, while the flavors are powerful and warm. It's recommended to let the cheese come to room temperature, then serve it with olives and nuts.


Pair it with a glass of full-bodied Burgundy wine or a dry and crisp white such as Sancerre.
