Item of the Day: Mont St. Francis from Capriole Goat Cheese

By | Cheese, Gourmet Cheese, Hors d'oeuvre, Item of the Day, Products, Salads, Southern Foods, What Chefs Want

Mont St. Francis from Capriole Goat Cheese

Mont St. Francis was named for a nearby Franciscan retreat and was first made in 1994 when there were few American washed-rind cheeses. Cheeses like the rustic, stinky Mont originated in monasteries across Europe and were traditionally washed in brine or beer. We finish ours in Monnik Beer Company’s His Dark Materials stout to enrich its funky, pungent flavor with a sweet, smoky finish. We’re “texture-proud” at Capriole, and the semi-firm, extra fine texture of this cheese is perfectly matched to its hearty flavor and beefy nose.
