Butte is French cheese, of
cow's milk, produced in the shape of a
hillock with a thick and smooth
penicillin rind, not unlike the familiar
camembert's rind. The cheese is buttery and
mushroomy, salty and
bitter.
The cheese becomes even more sharp as it ages, and when the rind develops a reddish tinge, the interior cheese has become quite runny.
