Le Cornebique is a soft delicate little
farmer’s goat-milk cheese produced by La
Chèvrerie Mathurin located in Ste-Sophie d'Halifax in the Centre-du-Québec
region overlooking the Appalachians.
Le
Cornebique is shaped in the form of a small log (8 cm long and 4.5 cm wide)
with a cream coloured natural rind. The white coloured paste is chalky in the
centre but extremely creamy along the inner rim.
Le
Cornebique is a young pasteurised chèvre, matured for only 14 days. It has a
mild to medium goat milk flavour with a more intense creamy nutty finish.
Delectable!
La Chèvrerie Mathurin is operated by
Chantal Mathieu and her partner Raphaël Morin. The Mathurin farm is comprised
of a herd of over 100 goats which most are Alpine breeds and a few are mixed
with Nubian or LaMancha breeds. La Chèvrerie Mathurin also produces bottled
non-homogenised pasteurised goat milk, yogurt, and fresh goat-milk & feta
cheeses.
