Cheese-monger Monday! - Florette


Name: Florette
Origin: France
Maker:???
Milk type: goat's milk
Cheese type: Soft
Words: I did it! I made it back on a Monday. Oh, what? Yes, yes. The cheese. Super sharp and tangy. Has a sort of ash/dirt thing going especially the rind. Too strong and bloomy for me. At least today.
