Our cheese this week is Isigny Sainte-Mere Petit Camembert made from raw cow’s milk, known in the local area as white gold! it is this outstanding raw material which allows this cheese cooperative to make a Camembert that never fails to take on a beautiful colour as it ripens, with a heady perfume. Milk from the farms in the cooperative have a naturally occurring lactic bacterial flora which are unique to the Isigny terroir. Because they are present in Isigny Sainte-Mère Camemberts, the taste is sufficiently distinctive for experts to identify the cooperative’s cheese in a random batch of Camemberts.
Delicious on your cheese board served with honey and walnuts or baked with garlic and herbs.
