How to cut cheese properly
These are just some of the questions our advisors hear every day in the store, so let's try to answer them!
Cutting cheese is very important!
The taste of cheese is not uniform throughout its mass. To enjoy its full range of flavors, it is necessary to adopt a certain cut. In addition, it allows you to obtain equivalent portions in terms of distribution of paste and rind, so that no one is left out.
At home, depending on the texture and shape of your cheeses, delicately cut them using a foie gras lyre or a thin-bladed knife. One knife per cheese is ideal, simply to make serving easier.
Odd numbers are preferable
Slates, wooden boards, round, square, oval or rectangular trays, marble, wicker, glass... The right surface depends on the number of cheeses you choose. 3, 5, 7, 9 cheeses, always an odd number to create harmony. Play with colors and shapes, and start with whole cheeses to show your guests how to cut them and appreciate the stage of ripening you've chosen.

Accompany your cheeses and dare surprising pairings
Granted, cheese and wine often go well together. With wine, you can be sure of a reliable alliance and, above all, a multitude of gustatory surprises, so many varieties exist. Although it's been shown that a white wine or champagne always sublimates our cheeses better than a red, it's also a subjective match.
Match what you like to eat with what you like to drink.
You'll rarely be disappointed!
Dare to think outside the box
Pair cheeses with beers, especially those from our northern countries, or cheeses with spirits, a slightly fat, heavy whisky with a light cheese for contrast, and why not coffee or even tea, so many different possibilities.
