All we could say is “wow” after the first bite. This washed-rind raw goat’s milk cheese from Belgium is a must try for cheese lovers. Rich and creamy, this can compete with a meaty Taleggio or Reblochon. Made from unpasteurized goat’s milk from a single farm in Ardennes, it is aged for 3 months with its rind developing into a deep orange hue. Cabricharme has a dense, creamy texture, flavors begin sweet with wine-like notes with nuances of a sweet burnt honey flavor and hints of hazelnuts. It finishes with a milky, fruity sweetness that is surprisingly ungoat-like. This is a tough cheese to stop eating, so simply grab a crusty baguette, a Belgian-style beer and get ready for your new favorite Trappist-style cheese.
La Fermière de Méan is a cooperative that was created in 1986 to market quality organic Belgian products. The cooperative first sold the products of member producers in the region's markets. In 1990, La Fermière de Méan started producing its own cheeses from the milk of member farmers. Today they make nearly 20 cheeses.
• Made from unpasteurized goat's milk.
• We cut and wrap this cheese by hand from a 2.5 lb wheel.

What’s the best way to store my cheese?
The best way to keep cheese fresh is to store it in the vegetable crisper in your fridge. Before doing so, wrap in parchment or wax paper, then wrap loosely in plastic wrap. You can also buy our exclusive cheese storage bags, specially created to keep your cheese fresher, longer.
Unless used for cooking, we don’t recommend storing cheese in the freezer as this will alter its texture.
What is the best temperature to serve my cheese?
Remove cheese from the fridge an hour before serving, as cheese is best experienced at room temperature to enjoy the full spectrum of flavors.
How long will my cheese stay fresh in the refrigerator?
The length of time cheeses last in the fridge after opening depends largely on the type of cheese. Soft varieties tend to spoil more quickly than hard varieties. Please refer to the table below for a convenient reference:
