Soumaintrain is a farmhouse (fermier) French cheese made with raw cow’s milk in the Burgundy region of France and is today made in Champagne-Ardennes in the Aube department. It owes its name to the town in Yonne where farmers originally manufactured this cheese. The soft, uncooked, and un-pressed paste has a distinct pungent yet sweet and creamy flavor resulting from numerous washings with a solution of brine and Marc de Bourgogne. Soumaintrain is very similar to Époisses. The quantity of Marc de Bourgogne is increased during the maturation period until the cheese develops an excellent orange colored, aromatic and sticky rind. Usually eaten young, Soumaintrain when cut, exposes a mild, white paste with a close and fine texture. For a washed-rind cheese, it is not a big stinker. It will come to room temperature on your counter without making you think something died in your kitchen. As it ages during six to eight weeks, the flavors become ripe, divulging sweet, salty and creamy milk notes. An excellent cheese for the winter months, Soumaintrain is occasionally eaten young, when the cheese simply consists of a mild, white paste. Since Soumaintrain is a washed rind cheese in the stinky category, the creamy yellow paste will run at room temperature. To help protect the cheese, it usually comes in a round wooden box. The cheese tastes excellent with Chablis, Rosé, Syrah and of course Marc de Bourgogne.
