About Saint-nectaire french cheese

Saint-Nectaire is a semi-soft, washed-rind French cheese originating from the Auvergne region, where it has been crafted for over four centuries. Made from cow’s milk, its creamy texture and nutty, earthy flavor make it a beloved choice in traditional French cuisine. Rich in calcium and protein, Saint-Nectaire supports bone health and muscular function, while also providing essential vitamins like B12. Its high fat content, however, means it should be enjoyed in moderation. The cheese matures for about 5-8 weeks, forming a distinctive orange-hued rind and a slightly pungent aroma. Pairing well with fruits, nuts, and rustic bread, Saint-Nectaire embodies the culinary sophistication of its terroir, offering a balanced combination of taste and nutrition for cheese lovers.
