About Beaufort cheese

Beaufort Cheese is a traditional French cheese hailing from the Savoie region. Made from unpasteurized cow’s milk, it boasts a firm texture and a rich, nutty flavor with hints of butter and fruit. Classified as a high-fat cheese, it provides a good source of protein, calcium, and essential vitamins such as B12. The cheese is notable for being naturally gluten-free and suitable for those seeking nutrient-dense dairy options. However, its high sodium and saturated fat content may make it less suitable for individuals on heart-conscious or low-sodium diets. Beaufort is a staple in Alpine cuisine, commonly used in fondue, gratins, or paired with bread and wine. Its complex flavor and nutritional benefits make it a cherished addition to balanced diets when enjoyed in moderation.
