Made from cow's milk and traditionally pressed and aged, Cantal offers a rustic, authentic flavour that evolves with age—from fresh and milky when young to firm, complex, and slightly spicy when mature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProtected by AOC status, true Cantal must be produced in the Cantal mountains following strict traditional methods, preserving its historic character and terroir. Available in three aging styles: Cantal Jeune (1–2 months) – mild and creamy; Cantal Entre-Deux (3–7 months) – balanced and nutty; Cantal Vieux (8+ months) – bold, sharp, and complex.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePairs well with:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApples, pears, walnuts, crusty bread, gratins, aligot, omelettes, salads, dry cider, farmhouse ales, Beaujolais, Côtes d'Auvergne, light Bordeaux.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNutrition \u0026amp; Ingredients (per 100g)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNutrition:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCalories: 390\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFat: 33 g (Saturated 21 g)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarbohydrates: 1 g (Sugars 0 g)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProtein: 25 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSalt: 1.8 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCalcium: 850 mg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cow's milk, salt, starter cultures, rennet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e","brand":"Cheese Boutique","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43818176151612,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0670\/7986\/4380\/files\/cantal-aoc2.jpg?v=1767588053","url":"https:\/\/www.joelleco.com\/products\/cantal-aoc-french-pressed-cows-milk-cheese","provider":"Jo Elle \u0026 Cie.™","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
