Tomme des Pyrenees PGI Capitoul 4.2kg

Tomme des Pyrénées comes from the foothills of the French Pyrenees, a region known for varied pasture and mild climate. This 4.2kg cheese wheel carries a PGI label, which protects its geographic identity and sets clear production rules. Its 45-day maturation forms a smooth golden rind and a balanced flavour unlike the black Tomme de Savoie which has a black rind. 

The cheese offers a supple, semi-firm texture with a mild yet expressive taste. Gentle dairy notes mix with light earthy hints. The flavour stays clean and steady with buttery and slightly nutty hints, making it a good option for slicing or melting in many dishes. 

To make Tomme des Pyrenees, the curd is heated and pressed before being shaped in wheel. The cheese then matures under controlled conditions to support a stable rind and even texture. This careful approach allows the interior to stay soft while the taste slowly develops. 

Tomme des Pyrenees works on a cheese board, in warm dishes or grated into simple recipes. Its suits potatoes, omelettes, baked vegetables or rustic sandwiches. The golden rind adds visual appeal when served whole or in large slices.
