Pont L’Eveque, Cows Milk, 400g

Pont Leveque Cheese 400g is 400g of Pont-l’Évêque AOP from Normandy, the celebrated square-format Norman washed-rind cheese with an orange rind. Pont Leveque cheese 400g is one of Normandy’s most celebrated washed-rind cheeses. As a result, the AOP washed-rind gives a more pungent character than Norman neighbours Brie and Camembert. Furthermore, 400g provides a generous board for six to eight. In particular, serve with Norman cider or Calvados for the most authentic regional experience.

About Pont Leveque Cheese 400g

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 Pont Leveque Cheese 400g 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 Pont Leveque Cheese 400g

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:

• Norman cider or Calvados — the most authentic regional pairing.
• Good baguette or pain de campagne alongside.
• A glass of Normandie cidre doux or a dry Pinot Gris alongside.
• Good French charcuterie alongside for a Norman sharing board.

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, Pont Leveque Cheese 400g 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.
