Bûche de chèvre - European Score 100/100

European Score analysis

The Bûche de Chèvre from Saint-Loup, produced by Savencia, achieves a European Score of 100, placing it in the 46th percentile within the goat's cheese log category — meaning it sits just below the midpoint of the 35 products assessed. While this percentile is more modest than some peers, the score itself reflects a thoroughly European supply chain.

All six breakdown components contribute to the total. Company headquarters and manufacturing each deliver the maximum 35 points, indicating that Savencia's corporate base and the production of this cheese — in Saint-Loup-sur-Thouet — are entirely located within France. The origins are also recorded as France, reinforcing the integrity of local sourcing. The ingredients and distribution scores of 10 and 15 respectively confirm that the product's inputs and logistical network are aligned with European frameworks. A proximity score of 5 recognises the geographical closeness of the supply chain. No certifications points are awarded, as no organic, PDO, or similar third-party labels are present on this product.

For a European-minded shopper, the core message is straightforward: this is a French-made goat's cheese produced by a European dairy group with ingredients of French origin. The mid-range percentile ranking within its category suggests there are competing products with comparable scores, but the 100 rating confirms this product meets the highest standard of European supply chain integrity available within the scoring framework.
