It used to be called Cabécou, a goats cheese from the well known town of Vierge Noire, and available since ... XV century ! Without a doubt it is the oldest local product of the Lot region.
Rocamadour is a flavoursom cheese which can be eaten young : after five to eight days, it’s velvety skin hides a soft heart and a subtile taste. You can however, also store it in the cellar for 2 weeks, time for it’s crust to dry, a little bit of blue to arrive and to give a stronger taste.
