1924 is a blue cheese made from a blend of cow's and sheep's milk, created by Mons Fromages. The name "1924" pays tribute to the year before Roquefort received the world's first AOP designation in 1925. This cheese features an ivory-colored paste veined with blue-green mold, with a relatively dense texture that becomes exceptionally soft on the palate.
Its aromas are robust, with notes of mushrooms, hazelnuts, and milk. 1924 is produced in the heart of the Auvergne region and completes its aging process in Mons Fromages' cellars in Saint-Haon-le-Châtel. It is recommended to pair this cheese with honey-infused sparkling beer, sweet white wines such as Sauternes or Jurançon, or bold red wines.
This cheese is an exclusive creation by Mons Fromages, blending the traditions of cow's milk cheeses from the north (Bleu d'Auvergne) with sheep's milk cheeses from the south (Roquefort) of the Grand Massif Central region.
