Most cheeses actually take very little time to "make". That is, the formulation and packing usually only takes a few days. However, most hard cheeses derive their value, texture and flavor from the aging process. Among the longest aging processes is the French Mimolette, which is usually aged in the vicinity of two years. appearance both in shape and interior color. It was created when King Louis XIV banned the import of Edamin the 17th century (Edam is from Holland). The texture is unlike anything else; hard, waxy, smoky, bacon-like sometimes with a hint of sweetness. The color is derived from a natural dye derived from a cousin to the annatto plant and produces a cheese the size, shape and color of fresh cantaloupe. Although we've experienced this amazing production, I've used assistance from the Gary Danko cheese site in San Francisco for some additional information... Enjoy!
