French Mimolette, also called "Boule de Lille", dates back to the reign of Louis XIV, who prohibited the import of Dutch cheeses into France. The residents of Flanders (now part of Belgium), the northernmost region of France, had strong cultural ties to Holland (many still speak Dutch as their first language today) and dearly loved the banished Dutch specialties. Their alternatives were to either smuggle in the contraband cheeses or make a go at producing their own - with a French twist, of course! And so, Mimolette was born. Mimolette is a semi-hard cheese that has the same texture and spherical shape as Dutch Edam, but with a natural rind. It is produced in bowling-ball sized 7-pound spheres with a bright orange-colored interior. Because of its hue, it is sometimes called the "Halloween Cheese." Its taste is gloriously sweet, yet uncommonly tame for a French cheese.

Mimolette is very popular throughout France and is enjoyed by both the most timid cheese novice and the serious connoisseur. This variety is aged for six months.

  • Made from unpasteurized cow's milk, aged for 6 months.
  • Photo depicts whole 7 lb form of cheese.

Aged Mimolette
This is very good, but not better than its Dutch counterpart. I did enjoy it and it arrived in mint condition.

Very Nice Cheese
A very pleasant cheese. Some might say it has a hint of a cheddar flavor, but very light. It does have a light salty aftertaste that I find very nice. I will buy this again. I would like Igourmet to consider adding a ½ whole form purchase option.
