FRENCH BRIE DE MEAUX ROUZAIRE (AOP)

Rouzaire Brie de Meaux, produced at the third generation Rouzaire family dairy, started in 1938, in the heart of the Brie region. Here they use traditional methods, ladling the curds by hand, resulting in an indulgently oozy Brie with rich mushroom notes that intensify as it ripens.

Its rich and decadent with hints of mushroom. The cheese is encased in a bloomy white crust that starts to mottle with maturation. At its peak the cheese has a condensed nutty and fruity flavour. 

The dairy in Fonteney Tresigny was opened in 1986, and the production process still stays true to the traditional methods of hand moulding, turning and salting that have served them well for so many years.

Milk is collected daily from 20 selected farmers in the Seine-et-Marne area of France, meaning the origin of the cheese is guaranteed.

The cheese is then ripened in underground cellars, which have been located in Tournan-en-Brie since 1960.
