This Tomme with Espelette Pepper by Les Frères Marchand is a semi-hard goat’s milk cheese infused with AOP Espelette pepper. Shaped in a 1.6kg wheel and sold per kilogram, it combines the tangy profile of goat cheese with the mild, aromatic heat of this distinctive Basque chili.

Detailed Information
Made from pasteurized goat’s milk, this tomme-style cheese is matured to achieve a firm yet creamy consistency with a natural rind. The incorporation of finely ground Espelette pepper—certified AOP—adds a warm, slightly smoky spice that complements the fresh, lactic notes of the cheese. Its flavor is balanced and complex, making it suitable for cheese boards, slicing, or pairing with cured meats and robust white wines.
