description

The Chabichou du Poitou has the specific shape of a small truncated cone, called "bonde" by analogy with the piece of wood formerly sealing the barrels. It is recognized by its refined, homogeneous, firm, ivory white lactic paste. Its texture is fine and melting, its taste frank, slightly typed and salty. If the ripening is prolonged, the chabichou develops its aromas and its dough becomes brittle.

Histoire

The legend brings back the origin of the word "Chabichou" in the 8th century, following the defeat of the Arab armies rejected by Charles Martel in Poitiers. Indeed, if the Saracens abandon the field in 732, the goats that accompany the troops remain there. They then took advantage of the quality pastures offered to them by their host country to give a rich and abundant milk from which was born this cheese which resembles no other.
