Watch a rare glimpse into how Beaufort Chalet d’Alpage is made (captured by our International Cheese Buyer, David, on a recent trip to Savoie, France)! You can see that the curds are drained by hand and the cheesemaker knows exactly how much to scoop up to make one ~90lb wheel. The pulley helps the cheese maker move the curd into the wooden molds where they are then pressed and turned every few hours for the first day.
Beaufort Chalet d’Alpage is a very specific and special designation of Beaufort. It is produced solely in the Haute-Savoie region of France and there are only 15 producers in its entirety, thus there is a very limited amount available. Click here to have it shipped: [ Ссылка ]
