  • Kid rennet

Caromont Farm is close to the tiny village of Esmont – one road, no stoplight, and the kind
of small town post office of a bygone era. This cheese is named for our home town.
A small rustic tomme, made in an Italian basket mould. The Esmontonian begins with notes
of minerality, a touch of citrus, and finishes with a delicate earthy aroma and a toasted maple
note. With age expect a more picante note and a dry grana like texture.
