Where Is Brillat-Savarin Cheese Made?

Brillat Savarin is one of France's classic triple créme cheeses. Production is industrial, and the cheeses are made by three dairies located in the Ile de France region; Fromagerie Fermiere de Juchy, Societe Fromagere de la Brie or Rouzaire's Fromagerie de Pre-Foret.

How is Brillat-Savarin made?

The milk is molded into wheels which are about 4 inches in diameter and 4 centimeters thick, before being aged for a minimum of three weeks. Brillat-savarin is uncooked and un-pressed so the outside is soft with a white mold. When fresh, this is a delectably soft, creamy cheese, with a buttery colored interior.

What does Brillat-Savarin cheese taste like?

A matured Brillat-Savarin has a typical white, bloomy rind with an interior paste that is buttery-white in colour. The texture is dense, moist, and slightly chalky with enough lusciousness and creaminess for a triple cream cheese. Flavours are of butter, salt and cream with hints of mushroom, nuts and truffles.
