Just north of the French border lies Chimay, a town in the Belgian forest of Mont du Secours. In 1850, Trappist monks built a Cistercian Abbey there as a place to study, pray and work. In 1862, the monks added a dairy and a brewery to the Abbey to help generate funds for their livelihood. Soon thereafter, they started making cheese from milk produced at the dairy that became quite popular at the local marketplace. Our Chimay cheese is a variation of their original recipe, but is even more special, as the rind is washed with their already famous Chimay beer rather than ordinary spring water. This new variety developed an incomparable flavor that delighted the nose as well as the palate. The cheese is semi-soft and has a nutty, well-finished flavor with just a hint of hops and malt. While its aroma is quite strong, the taste of the cheese itself is somewhat mild but not at all bland. · Made from scalded cows milk

Summary: Awful cheese
Comment: This was the worst cheese I have ever purchased. It ended up costing over $26.00. The smell was awful. We couldn't stand the smell. We barely tasted it because of the smell. It came to us warm. It was a total waste because we threw it away. I contacted the company about the product, to this day I never received a reply. Save your money. I purchased it because the beer they make is very good. They need help with their cheese. I gave it 1 star because I couldn't give it zero.
