French Soft Goats Cheese
French soft goats cheese is loved for its creamy texture and characteristic fresh, tangy flavour. Depending on the variety and its maturity, goat’s cheese can range from mild and lactic to richer, earthier and more pronounced.
Our collection includes traditional cheeses such as Sainte-Maure de Touraine alongside other soft and matured varieties. Serve them at room temperature as part of a cheeseboard, crumble or slice them into salads, or pair with fresh fruit, honey and good bread.

Crottin and Traditional French Goat Cheeses
Crottin is one of the most recognisable styles of goat cheese from France. Small and traditionally matured, its character develops as it ages, moving from fresher, tangier flavours towards a firmer texture and greater complexity.
Crottin de Chavignol is perhaps the best-known example of this style. Our current collection includes Crottin de Pays, alongside other traditional French varieties such as Sainte-Maure de Touraine and Tomme de Chèvre. Fine Food Specialist
How to Serve French Goats Cheese
French goat cheese makes an excellent addition to a cheeseboard, particularly when several different textures and levels of maturity are served together. Pair it simply with crusty bread, crackers, nuts, fruit or a drizzle of honey.
Goat’s cheese is equally versatile in the kitchen. Try it in salads and tarts, serve warm on toast, or pair with beetroot, figs, walnuts and seasonal vegetables. For more ingredients from France, explore our French Food & Ingredients collection.
