Creamery, unpasteurized, natural-rind cheese made from goat's milk. It has a round shape. The ash-covered rind gradually develops blotches of grey and blue moulds. This cheese by reputation is extremely old. Over many generations Selles-sur- Cher has maintained its original artisan method of production. The more it is aged, the Selles-sur-Cher character becomes more pronounced and its nutty flavour is accentuated. The fine, wood, charcoal covering is subtly tainted blue. By contrast, its pâte is snow white with a downy rind that shows superficial molding. At first, the taste of the cheese is faintly heavy and elastic; this is followed by a softening as it melts in ones mouth.
