Cheese has a supple orange rind decorated with a pattern that highlights its purely handmade origin. It is sometimes specked with white moss. When the cheese is young, its interior has a chalky part in the centre and a smoother outer part, with a creamy, rich texture. As the cheese ages, the chalky part disappears and the interior becomes smooth and runny. The aged interior’s smoothness gives it a palate-pleasing roundness.
