Bleu Ermite- Canadian Blue Cheese - per 100g

Bleu Ermite Canadian Blue Cheese (100g)

Bleu Ermite Canadian Blue Cheese is the First Blue Cheese crafted by the Monks of the Benedictine Abbey of Quebec.Bleu Ermite is a whole milk, semi-soft cheese. The aroma reflected is a grassy, herbal and mushroom-like smell, and it has a bit of a tangy taste palette. Deeply blue-veined, the mold gives the cheese it’s blue speckling. A wheel of Bleu Ermite weighs 2 kg, has a whitish-grey skin, and comes wrapped in silver foil.  The middle of a wheel is particularly creamy. This cheese is the perfect strength as an introduction to blue cheese, or a cheese fit to impress any seasoned taster.

Use Bleu Ermite to accompany pears and walnuts, or crumble over soup for a change of tone. Great paired with a burger or a nice rare steak.  

Or enjoy with a port, late-harvest Riesling or icewine. (Check out one of the many local wineries in Niagara-on-the-Lake!)
