Livarot Du Plessis (AOP/PDO) - 500g
Livarot du Plessis AOP is a traditional Normandy washed-rind cheese, celebrated for its intense aroma, rich flavour, and creamy texture. Crafted in the heart of Normandy, this cow’s milk cheese holds Appellation d’Origine Protégée (AOP) status, ensuring it is made following strict traditional methods that preserve its unique character.
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.
