Morbier is one of the smellier cheeses with a surprisingly mild sweet buttery nutty taste followed by a slightly bitter tang. It was originally made by farmers from the leftover curds of Gruyère de Comté. As there weren’t enough curds to make a whole cheese, those ever-resourceful French farmers protected the first layer with black ash, then topped it up the next day. You can see this distinctive black line in your slice of Morbier today.
