This Trappist cheese comes to us from the Abbey of Chimay. It is washed with the well-known beer from Chimay giving it a characteristic aroma - the attributes of a pungent washed rind cheese filled out by the yeast and hops of a great beer. Despite being a washed rind cheese, it is gentle in flavor with a supple smooth texture. Product Metrics:
