St. Nectaire is a French semi-soft, washed-rind cheese from the Auvergne region of France. Made from the milk of Salers cows that feed on rich, volcanic pastures, St. Nectaire is both a fermier and industrial cheese. The texture varies depending on whether the processes are artisanal or industrial. St. Nectaire fremier takes six to eight weeks to mature on rye straw mats, imparting a peculiar pungent smell to the cheese. The creamy, silky paste reveals flavors of nuts, hay, cellars and mushroom.
