Bleu de Gex
Bleu de Gex is a creamy, semi-soft blue cheese made from unpasteurized milk in the Jura region of France.
It is named after the Pays de Gex. During production, Penicillium roqueforti mold is introduced and the unwashed curds are loosely packed. It is then aged for at least three weeks. To meet Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée guidelines, it must contain only the milk of Montbéliard cows. It is flavorful and stronger than the majority of French blue cheeses. Each wheel is stamped with the word "Gex".
