Fromagerie Hisada

Fromagerie Hisada is a charming cheese shop tucked away on Rue de Richelieu in the heart of Paris, near the Palais-Royal and the Louvre. Run by a passionate affineur, the shop offers a carefully curated selection of French cheeses, from classic Brie de Meaux and Comté to more obscure regional varieties. The cozy interior is lined with wooden shelves displaying wheels and wedges of cheese, each with a handwritten label noting its origin and characteristics. The knowledgeable staff are happy to offer tasting suggestions and explain the differences between milk types and aging processes. Whether you're looking for a perfect picnic cheese for the nearby Tuileries Garden or a gift for a foodie friend, Fromagerie Hisada provides a quintessentially Parisian gourmet experience. The shop also sells accompaniments like bread, butter, and wine to complete your cheese board.

How travelers rate it

Know before you go

• Bring cash or a credit card; the shop accepts both, but small purchases may be easier with cash.
• If you're unsure what to buy, ask for a 'dégustation' (tasting) to try before you buy.
• Cheese can be vacuum-packed for travel; ask the staff if you need it to last longer.
• If buying cheese for later, bring a cool bag, especially in summer.

A bit of history

Fromagerie Hisada is a relatively recent addition to Paris's cheese scene, opened by a Japanese affineur who trained in France. It reflects the growing international appreciation for French cheese craftsmanship.
