This is another ancient norman cheese made in the area of its namesake in town. Though still a washed rind cheese, it is much more restrained that Livarot. The rind is generally not as moist and smelly, but rather with a grassy and mellow bouquet. The flavor is savory, reminiscent of Camembert, with a rich, creamy texture. This smaller version of Pont L'Eveque will ripen more more quickly than the Grand Pont L'Eveque which we also carry. Product Metrics:
