A rich raclette-style cheese made for melting.
Overview
Inspired by the iconic melting cheeses of the European Alps, Bua Chompoo is a semi-soft washed-rind cheese crafted from fresh Thai milk. Rich, creamy and irresistibly melty, it develops a delicate pink rind through careful hand washing during maturation. Whether enjoyed melted over potatoes, paired with charcuterie, or served on a cheese board, Bua Chompoo delivers warmth, comfort and unforgettable flavour.
The Story
Bua Chompoo (บัวชมพู), meaning "Pink Lotus", takes its name from the beautiful blush-pink colour that gradually develops on its rind during maturation. The name reflects both the cheese's distinctive appearance and our philosophy of giving every Hungry Wolf cheese a uniquely Thai identity.
