Appearance

Firstly, we love the bold branding of Vacka, with it's pop culture style. Inside the card box you'll find the Vrie encased in a paper wrapper.

Once this is peeled away for the cheese you'll happily discover a bold white bloom if ever we have seen one, it's got an nice thin crust of white rind bloom and underneath you can see a smooth more blonde nutty colour tone to the cheese.

It's appearance is naturally cultivated over a period of 1 month.

Aroma

Mouldy bloomy aromas which seduce and make us salivate at the thought of it.

Flavour

Flavours are rich, creamy and elegant. Little hints of a white chocolate flavour too.

There are tones of fermentation that give you that more mature, mouldy flavour, this increases more so a moment after you have tried it and there are no lingering acidic aftertones.

Texture

The texture is semi-soft with a slight firmness that makes for a slow slice through the cheese.

The outside crust of white bloom gives you that outer firmness that protects the softer interior that is ultra smooth, a little dense and also velvety.

Longevity

The Vaca Vrie has a best before of 60 days, 2 months, this is ample time to save it for a vegan cheese party.
