Comte, also known as Gruyere de Comte, is a hard cheese made from unpasteurized cow's milk in eastern France. It is the leading cheese by volume among all French cheeses carrying Protected Designation of Origin status, reflecting both its popularity and the scale of its production in the Jura and surrounding Alpine region. The cheese has the firm texture typical of aged mountain cheeses.
