Brie de Melun A.O.C.

The only other authentic Brie, Brie de Melun’s milk comes from a smaller area than Brie de Meaux and is left to coagulate for longer, meaning it ripens more slowly. 

Characteristics:  meltingly soft, sunshine yellow interior, strong, pungent, slight saltiness.

Best with: as with its close cousin, Brie de Meaux, it works best at room temperature with very fresh bread and little else to detract attention.
