It's saffron coloured skin probably tells you that this is a washed rind cheese and if you happen to be in it's presence, it's pungent aroma leaves you without any doubt.
I found the skin to be somewhat tacky to the touch and compared to previous washed rind cheeses, this one is not for the faint-hearted.
This hasn't been out of the fridge for too long but you can see that it's started to soften - the cheese has a creamy mouth-feel but it's quite strongly flavoured, along the line of a blue cheese. Even after three hours there's still quite a strong ammonia scent.
I'd recommend this for those that like their cheese with attitude.
*For Melbournites - I found this cheese at Leo's in Kew, they also stock a few others from their range.
