Product Details
Pizy is a bloomy rind cheese made from 100% pasteurized cow’s milk by Fromagerie La Suisse Normande in Quebec. Its name comes from the name of a small village in the Swiss canton of Vaud, where one of the cheesemakers, Fabienne Guitel, grew up. Pizy is made in the style of Tomme Vaudoise, a cheese local to Fabienne’s hometown.
This soft farm cheese has a smooth, melt-in-your-mouth creamy white paste that becomes increasingly runny over time. Flavours are mild, milky with notes of salted butter and a hint of bitterness, resulting from prolonged ripening.
Without a doubt some of the best cheese I’ve ever had. Mild but assertive enough to do well as a snack unto itself. Excellent contrast when served with fruit or cooked and paired with meat. Versatile. Center is so soft it runs.

Delicious cheese! Served with a large charcuterie and cheese board for a large gathering and was the standout amongst a bunch of stars. Would definitely recommend.
