Fleurmier de Charlevoix - 250g

Historical

Fleurmier is the first fine cheese that we have developed and marketed. It was launched in 2000 when the Quebec fine cheese industry was barely taking off. It is also the first cheese from Laiterie Charlevoix distributed on a larger scale and by Aux Terroirs outside the immediate region of the National Capital. It was following the immediate success of Fleurmier that we began a sustained phase of development of fine cheeses. Fleurmier takes its name from a link between the terms fleur-de-lis crust and fer mier cheese.

Product Features
