Okay, we bought this for the look (like a wine label, I suppose), but would buy it again for the flavor. French Mimolette is a hard, brittle, bright-orange cheese with a very nutty flavor. Carrots are pretty popular in this house, so this has been dubbed our new Carrot Cheese. The Mimolette is spherical like an Edam but with a rough moon-like surface (from cheese mites) and a bright orange interior. It resembles a melon when cut open. The cheese originated in Holland and is made in a similar way to Edam.
