A Northern speciality, previously known as the ‘boule’ of Lille.
Our Mimolette is a pasteurized, pressed cheese, made in the North since the XVIIth century. The original orange colour allows it to stand out from other cheeses. In order to protect the production of French cheeses and to differentiate them from imported Dutch cheeses, a natural colouring agent, Roucou, is used. Our extra-aged Mimolette has a tasty and slightly tangy, brittle paste. The flavour strengthens over time, which is why we make sure that the cheese has matured for at least 24 months.
