CHEESES AND DAIRY PRODUCTS

Three different types of milk are used in the production of our cheeses.
BANON tomme is our leading light, originating from a small village of the same name located in the Western part of the FORCALQUIER plateau. It is made using non-pasteurised goat's or ewe's milk, and refined in dry chestnut leaves. But you can also enjoy a selection of ewe's and goat's cheeses, fresh or dry tomme, the bulwark of our region's gastronomic heritage. Also try our cheeses made with cow's milk. Ubaye tomme and the génépi flavoured variety are our best-known ambassadors.
