Bucheron
After yesterday's unfortunate cheese experience I decided to play it safe today, with an old stand-by goat's cheese, bucheron.
Ah, bucheron, you are almost chevre! It's a typical goat offering, nothing offensive whatsoever, just pure goaty goodness. It's actually a little bit more chalky than a chevre. And it's round! It comes in logs, and how can you not like that? So you get a nice little round of goat cheese goodness.
I actually think the flavor is a little stronger than chevre, but not in a bad way. It has a nice, citrus-like tang in the aftertaste which does remind me a bit of the precious Humboldt Fog which is always a good thing.
Yes, after the "cheese whose name shall not be spoken" this was a very nice retreat into the familiar.
