Aged for a minimum of 6 weeks, Livarot du Plessis develops a pungent, earthy aroma and a smooth yet supple interior, encased in a sticky, deep orange rind, achieved through regular washing with brine and annatto. Its flavour is bold and complex, offering meaty, nutty, and slightly spicy undertones, balanced by a buttery, creamy finish.
Perfect for lovers of strong, characterful cheeses, Livarot du Plessis pairs beautifully with Normandy ciders, robust red wines like Côte du Rhône, or Calvados apple brandy. Best enjoyed at room temperature, it makes a fantastic addition to a rustic cheeseboard, served with crusty bread, charcuterie, and fresh apples.
At Cheesemongery.com, we source only the finest Livarot AOP cheeses, ensuring authenticity, traditional craftsmanship, and full traceability. Experience the depth of Normandy’s boldest cheese - order your Livarot du Plessis today.
