Paulinetoises

Paulinetoises starts off as a soft, mousse-like, fresh cheese with an almost whipped texture and rich creaminess. As it ripens, it becomes runny with a full, ultra creamy flavour. It is incredibly indulgent and a staff favourite here in Cambridge!

The History, Dairy & Farm, Animals & Maker

Paulinetoises is made in Paulinet, in the Tarn region of Southern France, east of Toulouse. The dairy was established in 1989. The 700 strong herd of sheep live freely on an 85 hectare open space, and feast on the green grass and clover meadows for most of the year, being fed homegrown hay and cereals indoors in the depths of winter. The dairy plant 17 hectares of cereals, predominantly barley, to ensure the herd have homegrown feed throughout the winter.
The cheese is seasonal as their ewes are only milked for 200 days per year.

Sustainability

The ewes are outdoor reared, fed a homegrown diet, and the cheese is made on the same site as the grazing fields, so there are no food miles involved in production.
