Picture of aviateur cheese
Picture depicts two cheeses of 3.5 ounces.

L'Aviateur is a small 3.5-oz. cow's milk cheese enriched with creme fraiche. It has a soft interior and a flowerly rind and it's diameter is approx. 2.5 inches.

L'Aviateur is in homage to 'The man who gave wings to the world', spiritual son of Leonardi da Vinci. In 1890, for the first time ever, Clement Ader managed to lift off the ground in a heavier-than-air machine that the called 'aeroplane'. This happened at Gretz Armainvillers just beside the cheese dairy.

We offer you 2 of l'Aviateur cheeses, a total of 7 ounces of this deliciously creamy cheese.
