Petit Tourtain: small in size, big on flavour
Petit Tourtain is a French cheese made from pasteurised cow's milk and cream that immediately stands out with its bloomy rind. Beneath the soft rind lies a creamy cheese with a full-bodied flavour. Thanks to the combination of white mould and red flora, this cheese has a beautiful balance of soft, creamy and slightly piquant notes. Each cheese weighs approximately 160 grams.
Flavour and texture
Petit Tourtain has a velvety, creamy texture that almost melts in the mouth. The flavour starts off creamy and mild, followed by a subtle spiciness.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much cheese do I need per person?
For drinks or as a starter, allow about 50 to 75 grams of cheese per person. If the cheese board is the main course, allow around 150 to 200 grams per person. Combine different types, such as a soft, a firm, and a distinctive cheese, for a varied board.
How do I store the cheese best?
Refrigerate the cheese immediately upon receipt, preferably in the vegetable drawer, where it is slightly less cold. As long as the vacuum packaging remains sealed, the cheese will keep until the date on the packaging. After opening, it is best to store it in cheese paper or a cheese box, so that it can breathe and does not dry out.
How do I serve cheese at its best?
Take the cheese out of the refrigerator about 30 to 60 minutes before serving. Its flavor and aroma are fully appreciated at room temperature. Only cut what you need; the rest will stay fresh longer this way.
Can I send cheese as a gift?
Certainly! Cheese is a delicious gift for any occasion. You can add a card with a personal message to the shopping cart (€1.95), so the recipient knows right away who it is from.
