Description & Tasting Notes Munster is a very well-known and well-loved soft ‘stinky’ cheese from the region of Alsace-Lorraine. As Munster matures the surface of the cheese is regularly rubbed with brine to encourage the development of a sticky orange crust and pungent aroma. It has a smooth, sometimes runny texture and assertive flavours of cured meats and porcini mushrooms with an intense, savoury finish.Other Notes & Serving Suggestions Off-dry, aromatic white wines with a touch of sweetness like Gewürztraminer and Riesling are perfect partners for this cheese. Serve on a cheese platter accompanied by fennel seed crackers – they are delicious with soft, pungent cheeses. It can also be used in the classic Alsace recipe Tarte flambée au Munster. Take care not to store Munster near any other foods in the fridge that will absorb the strong aroma.Region: Alsace – Lorraine, France Milk: Pasteurised Cow Rennet: Animal Size: approx 200g each, sold in a box of 12
