Cheese from France, Drôme and Ardèche, with the cantons of Valréas
Picodon PDOPicodon
Whole raw goat milk gets a little rennet at 20–25 °C and sets mainly by lactic souring over 16–36 hours. The curd is ladled into small moulds, dry-salted, dried for a day and ripened at least 12 days from renneting. A washed form, "affiné méthode Dieulefit", is confined cold until it turns blue, then washed and ripened for at least 30 days. Made in 6 steps over 42 days – 43 days. The longest step, confine and wash (méthode Dieulefit), takes at least 30 days (Ministère de l'agriculture 2017) and runs at 5–10 °C (Ministère de l'agriculture 2017). Lactic bacteria of the raw milk, or of the lactic starter or back-slopped whey does most of the fermenting.
No fixed amounts recordedThe rules fix temperatures, times and mould sizes but no amounts. One finished cheese is a small disc 5–7 cm across weighing at least 60 g (washed types at least 45 g).

What makes this one different
Picodon is a small lactic goat disc like Pélardon and Rocamadour. It is set warmer for a shorter time than Selles-sur-Cher, dried for a day before ripening, and has a washed form (méthode Dieulefit) that is first confined cold until it blues, then washed at least twice.
Milk
Raw whole goat milk, not standardised or homogenised; fodder and raw cereals from the area
Ripening
At least 12 days from renneting; washed types at least 30 days
Composition
At least 45 g fat per 100 g dry matter; at least 40 g dry matter per 100 g cheese
Size
5–7 cm across, 1.8–2.5 cm high, at least 60 g; washed types 4.5–6 cm, at least 45 g
Picodon affiné méthode DieulefitDried naturally, confined at 5–10 °C until blue, then ripened over 8 days at 13–17 °C in saturated air with at least two washes; sold after 30 days.
Picodon affiné lavéSame confinement and washing without the Dieulefit drying rule; sold after 30 days.
Safety
Made only from raw milk, set to pH 4–4.5. The rules ban freezing the milk, curd or fresh cheese and require at least 12 days of ripening (30 days for washed types).
Olivier de Serres described goats in the Bas Vivarais around 1600, and in 1866 the Drôme and Ardèche ranked first and third for goats in France. Surplus summer cheeses were kept in clay jars and washed every two weeks, the root of the washed method. The AOC dates from 25 July 1983.
