14 Arpents is a semi soft farm cheese made from the whole milk of the brown swiss cows. This square-shaped cheese has a washed rind exterior which is tender but still typically sandy, and the interior is creamy and rich. Rich buttery milk flavours melt with earthy and vegetal notes of cooked cauliflower, mushrooms with a lingering finish of hazelnuts. The cheese is named after a road that borders the cheese dairy, le chemin 14 Arpents. (14 acres)

Bois de Grandmont is a bark-wrapped bloomy rind cheese with woodsy, sweet, herbal, and bright flavours. The bark holds the delicate cheese together, provides flavour to the creamy paste, and allows for an ideal presentation as the centerpiece of a cheese plate.

This semi-soft, washed rind farm cheese is made with raw milk drawn from the Fromagerie l’Autre Versant’s herd of Ayrshire cows. Its orange-brown rind is partially covered by a fluffy white coat.

Inspired by AOC Morbier, Le Douanier is semi-soft, with a copper-coloured washed rind, with the pale golden paste split with a thin line of grey-blue ash made from maple wood. Flavour notes of green apple and nuts.
The ash line in the middle is symbolic of the U.S.-Canadian border that is located within a kilometre of Fromagerie Fritz Kaiser in Noyan, Quebec. Fittingly, Le Douanier translates to "customs officer."
This is a soft washed rind cow’s cheese from the Loire Valley, in the Aunis province of France, situated on the north-west coast, in the department of Charente-Maritime, within the region of Poitou-Charente.
Fleur d’ Aunis bathed in a cognac fortified aperitif and brushed lightly with fleur D’ Sel water. The salt re-crystallizes on the rind allowing you to bite into a nice soft cheese then having some crackly bits that change up the texture.
