Picture of bleu de bonneval cheese

Bleu de Bonneval is a French blue gourmet cheese made from raw cow's milk that originates in the Bonneval village in the Haute-Maurienne at an altitude of about 1,800 meters.

After the cheese has matured for 6 to 8 weeks the blue mould in the dough has developed nicely, and the cheese is ready to be consumed. The natural rind is covered with fine mould, and the paste is very smooth. The flavor is fruity and further accentuated through the blue mould.
