Pont L'Eveque

Pont l'Évêque is a traditional French, square-shaped, washed-rind cow's milk cheese from Normandy, known for its creamy, buttery, nutty flavor, strong aroma, and orange-pink rind that develops a pungent, earthy character as it ages. It's one of France's oldest cheeses, similar to Camembert but with a distinct taste from its brine-washed rind.  Try serving it with some crusty bread, figs (dried figs), or melting it in your fravorite gratin.  Pairs great with Norman cider, robust red wines, or dry sherry.
