Cheese Room > Rove des Garrigues
France, Languedoc
This is a wild and beautiful arid area with scrubby grassland of wild thyme, gorse and dense woodland of Chestnut trees. The goats are allowed to roam and therefore eat lots of herbs and chestnuts which then give the milk its definitive herbal bosky flavours. The early Spring cheeses are fresh and tangy, as the season progresses the flavours become more full.
