\"Q\"<\/a><\/div>\n
Which Canadian cheeses and cheesemakers do you steer your customers toward?<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\"A\"<\/a><\/div>\n
The province of Quebec produces the greatest variety of cheeses in Canada, and because of their French heritage, many of these are based on French styles, especially washed rinds. The most famous of these is Oka<\/a><\/strong>, from the region of the same name. This washed rind was created by the Trappist monks who settled in the region in the early 1600s.<\/p>\n

Some of our current favorites are Grey Owl<\/strong>, an ash-covered, soft goat cheese, and Magie de Madawaska<\/strong>, a soft, creamy delight in the style of Pont-l\u2019\u00c9v\u00eaque. Both are from the Fromagerie Le D\u00e9tour. We also like the triple cr\u00e8me Brie-style Riopelle de l\u2019Isle<\/strong> and the excellent aged Cheddar de l\u2019\u00cele-aux-Grues<\/strong>, both from the Fromagerie de l\u2019\u00cele-aux-Grues.<\/p>\n

From Prince Edward Island, home of Anne of Green Gables<\/em>, comes Avonlea<\/a><\/strong>, a magnificent two-year-old unpasteurized clothbound cheddar with bright, fruity tones of pineapple and citrus.<\/p>\n

Our most popular cheese is a soft, creamy ch\u00e8vre, which comes from the Okanagan Valley in BC\u2019s interior. Also, our house-made cider-marinated camembert is sought after. We have been making this according to an old Normandy recipe for close to 20 years now. We use a triple cr\u00e8me from Quebec and marinate in scrumpy cider made right here on Vancouver Island at the Merridale Ciderworks. As far as I know, we are the only ones in Canada making anything like this.<\/p><\/div>\n
