Epoisses, Cows Milk, 250g

Epoisses Cheese Cows Milk is 250g of Époisses AOP from Burgundy, the most celebrated washed-rind cheese in the world, washed in Marc de Bourgogne. Epoisses cheese cows milk is the world’s most celebrated washed-rind. As a result, the Marc de Bourgogne washing gives a complex, boozy depth no other washed-rind can replicate. Furthermore, the 250g is the classic format for a cheese course for four to six. In particular, a ripe Époisses should tremble in its wooden box.

About Epoisses Cheese Cows Milk

We source French soft cheese from specialist affineurs and fermier producers across Normandy, Burgundy, Savoie and the Rhône-Alpes. In particular, fermier production means the cheese is made on the farm with a single herd. As a result, a Camembert de Normandie fermier is a fundamentally different product from a supermarket version. Furthermore, the great washed-rind cheeses of France — Epoisses, Munster, Langres and Livarot — have a pungency and depth no other cheese style matches. However, soft cheeses are at their best at room temperature — allow 45 to 60 minutes out of the fridge before serving. In particular, AOP and DOP certification guarantees genuine French origin. Additionally, every cheese here benefits from the finest bread and a complementary wine. That commitment to fermier quality defines every soft French cheese we offer. That is why this product from The Artisan Food Company consistently impresses even the most discerning cheese lovers.

Why Choose Epoisses Cheese Cows Milk From Us

Using French soft and washed-rind cheese well requires one essential habit: patience. In contrast to serving straight from the fridge, soft cheese at room temperature has an entirely different flavour and texture. As a result, always remove soft cheese at least 45 minutes to 1 hour before serving. Furthermore, a ripe Brie or Camembert should wobble and feel almost liquid at the centre. However, washed-rind cheeses smell considerably stronger than they taste — the aroma is a poor guide to the flavour. In particular, the Langres crater is designed to receive Champagne or Burgundy at the table. Moreover, baking Vacherin, Camembert or St Marcellin at 180°C creates a molten experience. Additionally, always serve on a board with good bread — nothing else is needed. That room temperature patience and good bread define how to serve these magnificent cheeses.

How to Serve Epoisses Cheese Cows Milk

To get the very best from it:

• Serve at full room temperature — remove from the fridge 1 hour before serving.
• Serve on a cheese board as the powerful, complex centrepiece alongside milder cheeses.
• Furthermore, follow the Burgundian tradition with Langres by pouring Champagne into the crater.
• Additionally, serve with robust bread — rye or wholegrain — that can stand up to the character.

Perfect Pairings

This product pairs beautifully with:

• Marc de Bourgogne or red Burgundy — the most complementary pairing in French cheese.
• Good baguette or pain de campagne alongside.
• A glass of red Burgundy, Gevrey-Chambertin or a Côte de Nuits alongside.
• Good Burgundian charcuterie — jambon persillé — alongside.

Storage: Keep refrigerated. Furthermore, consume within 5 to 7 days, checking the use-by date. However, always remove from the fridge 45 to 60 minutes before serving. Soft cheese is at its best at full room temperature.

However you serve it, Epoisses Cheese Cows Milk brings a character that only genuine artisan cheese can deliver. Moreover, great cheese always rewards good bread, the right wine and serving at room temperature.
