About Mascares Cheese

Mascares is a fresh, soft cheese made from a blend of goat's and sheep's milk in the Provencale region of France. It has a creamy white interior and is traditionally wrapped in leaves, which adds a touch of rustic appeal. The cheese offers an earthy aroma with floral notes, suggesting a connection to the natural surroundings where it is produced. Its texture is smooth and spreadable, making it ideal for pairing with crusty bread or crackers. The flavor is mild yet tangy, with a subtle hint of sweetness.
