Definitely love this cheese, particularly when it's runny and needs to be scooped into a container! Perfect with crusty bread and saucisson.

Rich and flavoursome. After this supermarket soft cheese will be very bland. This has the soft sumptuousness of say brie but with the flavour of more stinky sharp cheeses

Epoisses AOP YUM! 5
Posted by Moesha on 23rd Jul 2020
The cheese itself has a pungent (almost dirsty shoe like) aroma but the taste of this cheese is sublime. IT smooth and creamy, with a mild taste. It went amazingly with quince paste and crusty bread. Its a must try!
