St. Andr\u00e9 is also fairly rare. Containing no less than 75% butterfat for every 100 grams of cheese, St. Andr\u00e9 is commonly agreed to be 50% richer than the average Camembert.

The interior is straw white, slightly more golden in color if aged. The paste is elastic and contains holes but, depending on the aging, it may also be granular with small cracks. The cheese&#8217;s scent recalls milk fresh from the cow, and its taste is sweet and balanced, more accentuated and flavorful in the aged version.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Comte<\/strong><br \/>\nFrench cows<br \/>\ntype: semi-hard<\/p>\n<p>Comt\u00e9 (also called Gruy\u00e8re de Comt\u00e9) is a French cheese made from unpasteurized cow&#8217;s milk in the Franche-Comt\u00e9 region of eastern France. Comt\u00e9 has the highest production figures of all French AOC cheeses, making around 40,000 tonnes annually. Its name is French for &#8216;county&#8217;, and is named after the Franche-Comt\u00e9 region.  The rind is usually a dusty-brown colour, and the internal p\u00e2te is a pale creamy yellow. The texture is relatively hard and flexible, and the taste is mild, slightly sweet, and &#8216;nutty&#8217;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was the first cheese night in Burlington, and all of the cheese was from the local Harris-Teeter.
