Fromager d’Affinois

Fromager d’Affinois is a French double-cream cheese created in the Rhône-Alpes region by Fromagerie Guilloteau in the 1980s. Though often compared to Brie, it is made using a unique ultrafiltration process that concentrates the milk before cheesemaking, resulting in an exceptionally rich, silky texture and buttery flavor while still maintaining a delicate bloomy rind. Made from cow’s milk, the cheese is known for its luscious, creamy interior that becomes increasingly soft and spoonable as it ripens. Mild and approachable, Fromager d’Affinois offers notes of sweet cream, cultured butter, mushrooms, and fresh milk with a smooth, elegant finish. Its luxurious texture and balanced flavor have made it one of the most popular modern French soft-ripened cheeses worldwide.
