ColoRouge

ColoRouge is an American cheese hailing from Fort Collins, Colorado. This soft, artisan cheese is made from pasteurized cow's milk and it's typically aged from 2 to 8 weeks. During the aging process, the curd is ladled by hand, then turned from time to time.

The cheese is hand-rubbed, resulting in a bloomy washed rind. Underneath it, the texture is soft, creamy, and buttery when young. As it ages, the texture becomes even softer. The aromas are earthy, floral, and mild, while the flavors are buttery, complex, spicy, earthy, and acidic.
