WHAT IT TASTES LIKE: Bouncy and fresh. Buttery, sharp, milky and gentle nutty finish.
WHERE IT COMES FROM: Very much a farmhouse cheese, Tomme de Savoie is made to slightly different recipes by every producer – it’s said that there are as many Tommes as there are Savoie valleys of the Rhone-Alpes. Ours is made in Bourg-Saint-Maurice by two producers who both rear their own herds of Tarine and Abondance cows.
