Xmas Add-Ons 2010 > Cheese Camembert Philippe

Enjoy the perfect Camembert on your Holiday Cheese Plate! 

 

Camembert de Normandy Philippe AOC is one of the most revered cheeses to come out of France. There are only 11 fromageries in Normandy that are allowed to make AOC name controlled Camembert de Normandie, using milk collected from the immediate vicinity. This Camembert bursts with a complex grassy, vegetable and mushroom flavor and aroma. The flavour is salty, rich and buttery! The white bloomy rind holds wonderful rich flavours that exudes notes of fruits and vegetables. This Camembert is a cheese experience like no other! It can be described only as perfection! Just be careful - once you take your first bite, you might just eat the whole thing! This Cheese is best served with an aromatic and fruity wine, not too hearty nor too mild.  Many like it with a Burgundy wine, a Bordeaux, or with dry cider.
