Fromagerie Quatrehomme

At Fromagerie Quatrehomme, cheese isn't just a product—it's an art form perfected over seven decades. The selection rotates with the seasons, offering between 200 and 250 varieties at any given time, each one carefully sourced from small producers across France and aged in the shop's own cellars. This commitment to affinage—the art of cheese aging—is what elevates Quatrehomme above ordinary cheese shops. Each cheese is monitored and turned regularly, developing complex flavors and ideal textures that reflect both the terroir of origin and the expertise of the affineur.

The range is comprehensive and impressive. Delicate chèvres showcase the diversity of goat's milk cheeses, from fresh and tangy to aged and complex. The brie à la truffe represents luxury and refinement, with earthy truffle notes complementing the creamy paste. Seasonal specialties like vacherin appear when conditions are right, offering their characteristic unctuous texture. The comté selection demonstrates various aging periods, allowing customers to taste how time transforms this Alpine cheese from nutty and sweet to deeply complex and crystalline.

Beyond traditional French cheeses, Quatrehomme offers exclusive creations that have become signatures. The Fontainebleau is legendary—a fromage blanc so light and airy it resembles whipped cream, offering a delicate sweetness that makes it equally suitable as a cheese course or dessert. The Fiadone au brocciu, an exclusive offering, showcases the shop's creative approach to Corsican cheese traditions.

The fromagerie extends beyond raw cheese, offering prepared items that make cheese accessible for various occasions. Savory cakes, soufflés, tresses, and feuilletés transform cheese into ready-to-serve dishes. Morning offerings include faisselle and cheese-and-tomato tart, perfect for breakfast or brunch. The carefully selected charcuterie and wine complement the cheese selection, allowing customers to create complete tasting experiences. Custom cheese platters can be composed to suit any occasion, with expert staff guiding selections based on preferences, guest count, and menu requirements. This comprehensive approach—from raw ingredients to prepared dishes, from education to custom service—makes Quatrehomme a complete destination for anyone serious about cheese.
