Pikauba (cheese)
Canadian cheese
The Pikauba is a semi-firm cheese, farmer made by hand, in the region Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean in Quebec.[1] It takes its name from a river, Pikauba River, that crosses the Laurentides Wildlife Reserve.
It is recognized by its fine orange rind and its soft, golden paste, strewn with small holes. Medium in intensity, Pikauba has a buttery taste with fruity aromas. It comes in 2.5 kg or 5 kg format.
