Morbier

Morbier is a semi-soft cows’ milk cheese of France named after the small village of Morbier in Franche-Comté, It is ivory colored, soft and slightly elastic, and is immediately recognizable by the distinctive thin black layer separating it horizontally in the middle.

The aroma of Morbier cheese is mild, with a rich and creamy flavour. It has a semblance to Raclette cheese in consistency, and works perfectly well with raclette Machine.

The Jura and Doubs versions both benefit from an appellation d’origine protégée (AOP).
