What Herve Mons Has Done For Cheese:

Many French cheesemakers make cheese, then pass it along to Affineurs like Herve Mons who handle the ageing process. Affineurs guide cheese along as it matures in caves or ageing rooms, ripening the cheese to its peak flavor and texture. Herve Mons' hands have touched a good portion of the French cheese imported into the US. Look for his name on cheese labels and you are sure to get a flavorful, memorable cheese.
