Langres (AOP/PDO) - 1kg
Langres AOP is a rich, creamy washed-rind cheese from the Champagne-Ardenne region of France, known for its silky texture, complex flavour, and distinctive sunken top. This cow’s milk cheese has been awarded Appellation d’Origine Protégée (AOP) status, ensuring it is produced using traditional methods that date back to the 18th century.
Aged for at least 15 days, Langres is regularly washed in brine and annatto, giving its rind a beautiful orange hue and slightly wrinkled texture. Unlike other washed-rind cheeses, Langres is not turned during ageing, which creates its characteristic concave top - often used to hold a splash of Champagne or Marc de Bourgogne for an extra indulgent experience.
Langres offers a mild yet complex flavour, starting with buttery and milky notes, followed by a delicate earthiness and subtle tang. As it matures, it develops a deeper, more pungent aroma, while the interior remains smooth, meltingly soft, and decadently creamy.
Perfect for a luxury cheeseboard, Langres pairs wonderfully with Champagne, Crémant, or a rich Burgundy white, as well as crusty bread, honey, or fresh fruit. Serve it at room temperature to fully appreciate its indulgent, velvety texture and balanced flavour.
