Délice de Bourgogne

A bloomy rind cheese from France. Why have less when you can have more? Delice de Bourgogne is the ultimate indulgence cheese. This triple-cream cheese from Burgundy has extra cream added during production, resulting in a fat content of no less than 75%. The effect is spectacular: a velvety, almost mousse-like texture that melts on the tongue like butter.

The flavor is mild and rich with cream, with a subtle tanginess and a faint mushroom note from the white-mold rind. At room temperature, the cheese practically oozes, it's that creamy. This isn't a cheese you put on bread, it's an experience. Spread it on a piece of warm baguette and you'll understand why the French treat cheese as an art form.

Pairs well with: Champagne, a full-bodied Chardonnay, or a dry cider. Serve at room temperature with fresh baguette, fresh figs, or a drizzle of honey. Compare with the Fromage d'Affinois for a slightly milder soft cheese, or the Brie de Meaux for a more classic option.
