Fritz Kaiser’s ancestry originates in Switzerland where he learned the art of making quality cow’s milk cheese.
The line of ash down the centre of Le Douanier is supposed to represent the line of the American and Quebec border -the area in which Fritz’s cheese shop and facilities are located.
Don’t be put off by the pungent washed rind which smells of barn stall. The centre paste is creamy and soft-melt in your mouth- comfort food. It’s aroma is light and fruity with a hint of apple. This cheese also pairs brilliantly with apples, as a dessert cheese or light snack.
