What is meant by A.O.C.?

"Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée" (French Label of Origin) means that the origin of the cheese is controlled. This is an official French label of quality which ensures you that the cheese is:

  • made following a traditional production process and in a specific region
  • tested according to the strictest conditions for quality control
  • generally made from raw milk

There are 41 kinds of cheese with AOC Label in France
