Big Livarot PDO cheese 500g ISIGNY SAINTE-MÈRE
415100
The Livarot can be recognized by its orange crust surrounded by its 5 sedges (strips of the aquatic plant) which also earned it the name "colonel". It is a cheese made from raw cow's milk, with a soft and slightly salty paste, blond and melting and with a washed rind. Its smell is strong and its flavor of terroir raised, with floral aromas and flavors of frank and pronounced smoked charcuterie. This cheese is made in compliance with the AOP Livarot in the Pays d'Auge in Normandy.
On an oceanic land of 35 km² that one would think made for dairy production, a traditional cooperative which belongs to the producers and works their fresh milk according to the rules of the art.
The Isigny-Sainte-Mère Cooperative works only over a geographical collection area of 35 km² in the Cotentin and the Basin around Isigny-sur-Mer. From an opulent herbage vintage, a veritable “butter and cream fountain” linked to rich and fertile soils (alluvium, 170 days of rain per year ideally distributed, mild temperatures in summer and mild winters). The result is a milk rich in mineral salts, trace elements and oleic fatty acids. The dairy belongs to the producers and processes the milk collected within 48 hours in a traditional way.See all products in this range
