Roquefort IGP La Coccinelle 100g

The origins of Roquefort La Coccinelle are intertwined with the very history of the village of Roquefort-sur-Soulzon, france. Here, as early as the 6th century AD, this blue cheese was produced, taking advantage of the unique climatic conditions of natural caves. These caves, carved into the limestone massif of the Larzac, provide an ideal environment for aging the cheese, with constant temperature and humidity that encourage the development of the Penicillium roquefort mold, which is responsible for the characteristic bluish veins and intense flavor that sets it apart.

The raw material for La Coccinelle Roquefort is raw milk from Lacaune sheep, an indigenous breed that grazes the green pastures of France. This milk, which is rich in aromas and flavors, gives the cheese a strong, tangy flavor with notes of herbs and a slightly spicy aftertaste. The minimum maturation of 5 months in the caves of Roquefort-sur-Soulzon further amplifies these characteristics, creating a complex and persistent harmony of flavors.

La Coccinelle Roquefort is a versatile cheese that is suitable for many occasions. Perfect for aperitifs and appetizers, it lends a touch of character to salads, sauces and dressings. Also excellent for savory pies and to accompany fortified wines, this blue-veined PDO will win over even the most demanding palates.

The production of La Coccinelle Roquefort follows strict quality and sustainability criteria. The milk comes from sheep farms that respect the environment and the animals, guaranteeing a genuine and authentic product. In addition, aging in natural caves makes it possible to reduce the environmental impact of the production process.
