Discover real cheese at Le Grand Fromage in Fernie!

The role of the cheesemonger is to determine what an individual might like and then guide them through the available products. A great way to do that is by talking over a tasting session and discussing it together. Let Le Grand Fromage introduce you to the best in Canadian artisanal cheese, as well as speciality cheeses from around the world that you won’t find at the local grocers.

It is important for a cheese shop to be able to inform their customers about the cheeses they carry. To bring to them the stories behind the cheese, where it was produced and what the cheesemaker is striving for. With an expanding inventory of over 200 cheeses, the team at Le Grand Fromage are always learning about our products in order to pass on that knowledge to customers.

Such an incredible variety of shapes, sizes, textures, colours, aromas and flavours are available in a single product. There’s great history and tradition behind the art of cheese making and affinage (ripening), and yet artisan cheesemaking in Canada is a relatively new trend.

Le Grand Fromage also stocks charcuterie, condiments, jellys as well as a selection of kitchenware, cook books and more. Fondue set rentals are also available!
