Munster cheese
TYPE OF FRENCH CHEESE
Munster Fermier; Münster (cheese); Munster (cheese)
Munster (), Munster-géromé, or (Alsatian) Minschterkaas, is a soft cheese with a subtle taste, made mainly from milk first produced in the Vosges, between the Alsace-Lorraine and Franche-Comté regions in France. The name "Munster" is derived from the Alsace town of Munster, where, among Vosgian abbeys and monasteries, the cheese was conserved and matured in monks' cellars.
