Marius Goat’s Cheese Cream with Thyme

Tasting Notes of the Curator

Marius Goat’s Cheese Cream with Thyme opens with a clean, fresh aroma—distinctly caprine but soft, never sharp. The texture is silky and whipped, allowing the natural tang of goat’s milk to unfold gently across the palate. There’s a pleasing brightness at first taste, followed by a subtle creaminess that rounds out the acidity without dulling it.

The thyme emerges gradually, offering an earthy, aromatic note that feels sun-warmed rather than medicinal. It enhances the cheese rather than competing with it, adding depth and a quiet savory finish. The balance is key here: lively but not aggressive, herbaceous but restrained. This is goat’s cheese made approachable—refined enough for elegant spreads, yet expressive enough to stand on its own.
