In the past, Laguiole was made on the Aubrac highlands. Its French gourmet quality is now guaranteed by an AOC label. It owes its name to Laguiole city in Aveyron which is also very famous for its knives.

Laguiole cheese has a thick brown rind and a firm pale-yellow paste and has a rustic taste that will remind some people of the Aubrac highlands. Its maturing process lasts from 4 to 12 months.

This gourmet cheese shows similarities with Cantal and Salers. Laguiole has a flowery, sweet and mildly sour flavor; strong but without a bite.
