Fromagerie Guilloteau was created in 1983 in Pélussin, Loire. It was the first creamery to use the now-famous ultrafiltration system. That same year, Jean-Claude Guilloteau's first cheese, the Pavé d'Affinois, was created. The Bleu d'Affinois is just as refined as the Pavé d'Affinois but has the added flavour of a blue. Made with milk enriched with cream, it is part of the soft-white family of cheeses but distinguishes itself by the slight addition of blue mould that combines the strong character of blue with the softness of cream and gives this cheese its unique appeal.
FLAVOUR: It is slightly salty and fresh with a subtle blue perfume mixed with the unctuousness and delicious flavour of cream.
HOW TO SAVOUR: Use it to make delightful tapas! Bleu d'Affinois and fig phyllo bundles, Date and Bleu d'Affinois Cake... This cheese is a must in the kitchen! It pairs well with a Chardonnay and a French baguette.
