Brie de Meaux
What is Brie de Meaux Cheese?
Brie de Meaux, named after the town of Meaux, is a French cheese produced in the region of Ile-de-France located near the east of Paris in France. In 1814, the European Tournament at the Congress of Vienna awarded Brie de Meaux the title "Le Roi des Fromages" (The King of Cheeses) for its unarguable flavour and texture.
This cheese holds the esteemed AOC label, a designation granted to only 40 French cheeses, ensuring not only its quality but also where and how it is produced. This soft cheese is made using unpasteurised cow's milk and traditional animal rennet. The curd is hand-ladled into moulds, followed by dry salting and a slow ripening process at specific temperature and humidity conditions. As the cheese ages, its rind develops distinctive red or brown patches, contributing to its character. The cheese has a milky and rich taste underlined by sweet and buttery flavours.
