In the natural caves of the Gojon cheese dairy in Challonges, you can discover the best of nature in terms of aging.

You will thus obtain the Ossau-Iraty AOP, giving it a taste that you will not find anywhere else.

Les Caves d'Affinage de Savoie
The Caves d'Affinage de Savoie is an artisan affineur located in Rognaix near Albertville in Savoie. They select and age cheeses in the heart of a former powder magazine, dug 65 meters deep under the Savoyard mountain. This tunnel transformed into an aging cellar with a high natural humidity (95 to 98%) and a natural temperature between 9°C and 13°C gives exceptional aging to the cheeses. Fromagerie Gojon
While walking along the Rhône in Challonges (74910), observing holes in the walls of a cliff, the idea of installing a cheese cellar was born. A constant temperature (4°C to 5°C) and humidity (95%) for slow natural aging. A family business that started with 500 wheels of Comté and now ages over 11,000 pieces.
