Grey Owl

Country: Quebec, Canada

Type: Soft, surface ripened 

Milk: Goat

Pasteurization: Pasteurized

Rennet: Vegetable

Tasting Notes:  The interior paste is firm, crumbly and dense, softening at the edge of the rind. As it melts in your mouth, the smooth and silky texture of the cheese offers pleasing sharp and lemony flavours. 

How we use it: We find this cheese goes perfectly well with a dry Riesling or a nice crisp Sauvignon Blanc.

Details: From Fromagerie Le Detour in Notre-Dame-du-Lac, Quebec. This delicious cheese is named after the revolutionary conservationist Archibald Belaney who was fondly known as Grey Owl for his fascination with Indigenous culture.

Our cheese case is small and meticulously cared for. We don’t try to carry everything, but instead we scour the field for tasty and interesting cheeses that satisfy the imagination as much as they satisfy the palate. We keep an ever rotating selection of about 45 cheeses in stock so there is always something new to try, but you can count on finding your favourites too--and every one of them is delicious!
