Regional cheese and cream stores Champagnole

A must in the Champagne region, this cheese shop has earned its letters of nobility over 5 generations. Great-grandson Marc has earned the prestigious title of Meilleur ouvrier de France Fromagers. Janin is a Mecca for creamer-refiners. No fewer than 150 cheeses from all over France and abroad are presented in this charming boutique. Most are carefully matured in the company's own cellars. A few regional products round out the vast selection. An address not to be missed, where you'll find the best advice.

This 1833 chalet housed the local cheese dairy before becoming the sales outlet for the Mont Rivel cooperative in the neighboring village of Vannoz. When it was founded in 1965, the cooperative began making and maturing Comté cheese (6, 12 and 24 months). Then morbier and raclette. It has 40 farms. Other products complete the range. This is a must for locals and ideal if you want to fill up on Comtois specialties. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible.
