Petit Sapin is a soft ripened cheese from the Jura in the Franche-Comté region of France. This area is well known for Vacherin Mont d’Or, a raw milk cheese of the same style.

Petit Sapin translates as “little fir tree” in French. The cheeses are bound in a band of spruce bark that is used to maintain the shape of the cheese while it ripens in its own little box.
