Product Description
This fruity, creamy cheese is remembered because of the flavorless layer of ash that divides it into halves. It is AOC's 38th member. Produced from cow's milk, it used to be for personal use by the farmers in Comte 200 years ago. Soot is thrown on top in order to prevent a rind from occurring. This cheese matures for 6 weeks before it is ready for sale.

Tastes good, smells terrible October 2, 2008

This cheese really has a nice, mild flavor, but you have to get past the smell first. I don't want to try to describe it, but it may very well be the WORST THING YOU EVER SMELL IN YOUR ENTIRE LIFE. I would sooner keep a dead skunk in my fridge then a wedge of Morbier, but if you're a cheese person, go ahead and try it, but take a shower after you're done.
