Modern, farmhouse, unpasteurized, vegetarian, hard cheese made from sheep's milk. It has a flattened round shape. The deep russet-red natural rind bears the intricate marks of the basket mould in which it is made. It is used as a table cheese, for grating, but also in soups. The cheese is sold at around four months, when the hard, crusty, ridged rind has an aroma of lanolin and damp wool. The cheese is hard and chewy, almost granular. Each bite reveals more of its complex flavors - roasted nuts, caramelized onions and meadow flowers with prickly tang.
