Whole raw goat milk gets a little rennet and curdles mainly by lactic souring for 18–48 hours below 25 °C. The curd is ladled by hand into tapered moulds, turned out, then salted and dusted with vegetable charcoal. The discs ripen at least 10 days at 10 °C or warmer, under a grey rind of Geotrichum and yeasts.
No fixed amounts recordedThe rules fix times, temperatures and the mould size but no amounts. One cheese is a disc about 9 cm across and 3 cm thick, with at least 55 g of dry matter.
Raw whole goat milk
From Alpine or Saanen goats or their crosses; stored on the farm at most 2 days[selles-cdc-2014]
Allowed, not required. Commercial cultures or cultures grown from the milk's own flora (whey); pure single-strain starters are banned[selles-cdc-2014]
Salt and vegetable charcoal
On the surface only, usually as one salt-and-charcoal mix; the ministry says makers once used ash and now use vegetable charcoal[selles-cdc-2014][agri-cvl-2022]

Whole raw goat milk gets a little rennet and curdles mainly by lactic souring for 18–48 hours below 25 °C. The curd is ladled by hand into tapered moulds, turned out, then salted and dusted with vegetable charcoal. The discs ripen at least 10 days at 10 °C or warmer, under a grey rind of Geotrichum and yeasts. Made in 5 steps over 36 h – 4 days. The longest step, let the milk curdle by souring, takes 18 h – 2 days (Ministère de l'agriculture 2014) and runs at up to 25 °C (Ministère de l'agriculture 2014). Geotrichum and yeasts does most of the fermenting.
Selles-sur-Cher is a lactic goat cheese like Valençay and Sainte-Maure, but shaped as a flat bevelled disc. It is salted on the surface, most often with a salt-and-charcoal mix, and part of the curd may be frozen and added back outside the April–July season (up to 50 %).
Milk
Raw whole goat milk from Alpine or Saanen goats; at least 75 % of the feed from the area
Minimum ripening, counted from renneting
At least 10 days from renneting, at 10 °C or warmer
Composition
At least 45 g fat per 100 g dry matter; at least 55 g dry matter per cheese
Size
Disc with bevelled edges, about 9 cm across and 3 cm thick
Selles-sur-Cher fermierMade on the farm from raw milk used within 24 hours of the first milking, with no frozen curd.
Safety
Made only from raw milk. Milk is kept on the farm no more than 2 days, and the rules require at least 10 days of ripening. ANSES advises pregnant women, young children, people over 65 and people with weak immunity not to eat raw-milk cheeses other than pressed cooked ones such as Gruyère or Comté, because of Listeria, Salmonella and Shiga-toxin E. coli.
The specification says Selles-sur-Cher began as a household product made mostly by women, and that ash, later charcoal powder mixed with salt, protected its quality during ripening. At the end of the 19th century poultry collectors (coquetiers) began to gather the cheeses, and some specialised in ashing and ripening them. The town of Selles-sur-Cher was the main collection and resale centre, and the cheeses were named after the place where they were ripened. The appellation d'origine was recognised by decree of 21 April 1975.
