Salers Tradition, and its sister cheese, Cantal have been produced in the mountains of the Auvergne since Roman times. Salers is made only during the summer months whilst the cows graze on lush mountain pastures whilst Cantal is made from the milk of other seasons. Only the Salers breed of cows is used as their milk is of incredibly quality, being concentrated and rich in nutrients. Each cow produces only 6.9 and 8.9 litres of milk, so little that a whole herd will only produce enough milk to make one cheese a day. This is a fermier cheese, made by fewer than 89 farmers in 1997 who use their stone, mountain-top huts to live in, make and mature their cheese. It is very dry, having been pressed twice, and beneath the thick, cracked rind hides an exquisite pâte that is the colour of egg yolks and which gives off strong, meaty aromas. On the palate, it is full bodied, sweet and vividly presents the mountain flowers that grow in the summer pastures.
