Truffled Délice de Favières "Tuber Melanosporum" 3% raw milk ±680g COMPAGNIE FERMIÈRE DE ROTHSCHILD
414244
Delicately lined with a layer of Tuber Melanosporum black truffle puree, this Favières brie is a truly singular product - perfect for special occasions, festive parties and fine dining cheese courses. The dark truffle layer creates a beautiful visual contrast with the white backdrop of the cheese; on the palate, the Favières has a creamy and persistent flavour, with powerful truffle aromas adding an intense backdrop to the woodland notes of the cheese rind. Created in 2007 by the Trente Arpents farm and bearing the name of the local area, Brie de Favières is a variation of Brie de Meaux, made in a smaller format like that of Brie de Melun. Its smaller size creates a unique flavour profile that differentiates this cheese from its cousins in Meaux; with a suppler and more fondant texture, its creamy pate retains a nutty flavour reminiscent of the local rustic woodland landscape, lingering on the palate with a light and pleasant aftertaste.
Farm-fresh dairy products from the Seine & Marne region, made using milk from herd cattle fed with the farm's own produce.
Located in Brie, the Rothschild family farm has 250 head of dairy cattle; fed mainly on the farm's own produce, these cattle produce almost 5000 litres of milk per day, which is then treated and refined in accordance with the traditional cheese-making techniques that have made Brie famous. Crafting their products with milk from their own farm means that all the Rothschild's produce carries the Fermier (“home-grown”) label - in fact, theirs is the only Brie de Meaux "Fermier” on the market. The farm also produces a Favières brie, using the same techniques but in a smaller format, as well as a truffle-stuffed version.See all products in this range
