Exquis is a cheese with a very spicy taste that is the result of 8 weeks maturation in cellars.
This Belgium cheese is made in the area of Herve, the Eastern part of Belgium, bordered by The Netherlands and Germany. The Belgians consider this part of the country their 'Normandy'.
The square form and the warm brick color of the cheese is characteristic for the Herve area.
The characteristic flavor of the cheese is a perfect match with sweet flavors such as pears, apples, figs and white wine such as Gewurztraminer.
