Cheese Slices - Cheeses of the Alps - FRANCE
The Alps and Savoie are covered by snow for at least four months of the year and cheese making here has always been a strictly seasonal affair. The local spruce forests play an essential role in ripening the soft and unctuous Mont D'Or. The high summer pastures where we visit a farm making the deliciously creamy Reblochon and learn how to grill it under hot coals. Then it's on to one of the few remaining cheese makers still making Beaufort, the "Prince of Gruyere" and its smaller cousin Abondance in the high alpage.Release
