Traditional French artisan cheeses

  • Brie de Meaux AOP

    This exceptional Brie de Meaux represents the pinnacle of French cheese-making tradition. Made in the Île-de-France region using time-honored methods, this cheese develops a rich, creamy interior beneath its distinctive white, bloomy rind.

    Tasting Profile

    The flavor is complex and nuanced, beginning with fresh, milky notes that give way to earthy, mushroom undertones. As the cheese ripens, it develops a slight tang and a luxurious, almost buttery texture that melts on the tongue.

    Serving Suggestions

    Serve at room temperature with crusty French bread, fresh pears, and a glass of Champagne. The cheese pairs beautifully with fig jam and toasted walnuts for an elegant appetizer.

  • Roquefort AOP

    This bold blue cheese from the caves of Roquefort-sur-Soulzon is made exclusively from sheep’s milk and aged in natural caves. The distinctive blue-green veining creates a strong, tangy flavor that cheese enthusiasts cherish.

    Traditional Cave Aging

    Aged for a minimum of three months in the famous Combalou caves, this cheese develops its characteristic sharp, salty flavor and creamy texture. The natural penicillium roqueforti creates the beautiful blue veining throughout.

    Tasting Notes

    Intense and complex with notes of blue mold, salt, and a distinctive sheep milk richness. The texture is creamy yet crumbly, melting smoothly on the palate with a long, savory finish.
