Le bleu de Bonneval
Treasure of the mountain pastures
Bonneval sur Arc is also known for its "Bleu" cheese. Shaped like a cylinder with a straight edge and a blue-grey rind, it is a mild cheese with a melting texture and blue mould. A real treat for gourmets and an unmissable tradition during a holiday in Bonneval sur Arc.
A rare and unique cheese in its taste
The milk from the « Tarentaise » and « Abondance » breed of cows is incomparably rich!
It is also harvested for the production of Beaufort AOP and transformed into delicious cheeses at the Haute Maurienne Vanoise dairy cooperative.
Bleu de Bonneval sur Arc is made exclusively with milk from herds on farms in Bessans and Bonneval sur Arc.
In summer, the high altitude pastures (above 2000 m) with a thousand flowers, offer our dairy cows quality food and this cheese a unique taste.
Our cheesemakers are experts and know how to transform this milk into a creamy, marbled cheese that delights our taste buds!
