Bleu de Chevre De La Memée

Bright, tangy and elegant — a goat’s-milk blue with freshness before power.

Bleu de Chèvre La Mémée is produced by Fromagerie Laqueuille in Auvergne. Its very white goat’s-milk paste is threaded with blue veins, giving a fresh lactic flavour, light saltiness and a clean blue spice.

Origin: Auvergne, France
Milk: Pasteurised goat’s milk
Style: Blue
Texture: Dense yet creamy
Intensity: Medium
Rennet: Animal rennet
Shelf life: Around 7–10 days once cut

The goat’s milk gives the cheese a lively, lactic start. Blue veining adds measured saltiness and spice, while the texture stays creamy rather than dry.

Take it out of the fridge around 30 minutes before serving. It works well with rye bread, pears or walnuts.

A dry aromatic white with freshness, such as Sauvignon Blanc or dry Jurançon, keeps the goat’s-milk tang lively. Sweet dessert wine also works if you want contrast.

Fruit and floral sweetness soften the salty blue spice, while something crisp keeps the pairing balanced.
