Description

Favourite cheese of Napoleon Bonaparte, Epoisses is a strong, musty, wine smelling washed rind cheese. The intense aroma comes about by way of its maturation. The cheese undergoes an intense ripening of five weeks where it is washed three times per week with Marc de Bourgogne.

Awarded the A.O.C since 1991, it has a powerful rich flavour, salty and creamy, with a pungent smell. The rind is washed with Marc de Bourgogne, giving a distinctive orange colour and comes in its own wooden box.

Serve with a crusty baguette and add a glass of white Burgundy wine for terroir-driven perfection.
