Roquefort Carles AOP

Carles Roquefort is a stunning example of a hand-made, artisan Roquefort. There are a couple of things that make this particular Roquefort stand out from the others. Firstly, being a small batch operation there is a great control over the quality of the milk and cheese production.  Milk is collected every morning from a collective of 20 farms. The exceptional quality of the milk brings all the fragrance and flavour of the pastures of the region. Secondly, the cultivation of their own penicillium roqueforti, from rye bread made in-house.
