Banon – a Provençal interlude centered on goat cheese
Banon is a raw, whole goat’s milk cheese with a soft paste and natural rind, typical of Provence.
A legacy of ancient craftsmanship from the farms of the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, it takes its name from a village nestled near the Albion plateau, between the Lure mountain and Mont Ventoux.
Banon is a cheese preserved in brown chestnut leaves; it is mild yet assertive, marked by notes of undergrowth, hazelnut, and chestnut imparted by the leaves.
When young, it offers a mild, rather milky flavor. As it ages, it develops more pronounced goat cheese aromas and a hint of tanginess.
Beneath its thin, natural rind, ranging in color from creamy yellow to bronze, lies a supple, unctuous paste that even becomes runny when well-aged.
Its consistency is melting and creamy, ideal for enjoying with a spoon.
