We didn’t think much about the cinnamon cheese, but it doesn’t mean that they don’t have a decent selection.
W had been reading the book Camembert (Boisard), but this is the first time we had seen some from Normandy. It came in a cute little box “Le Rustique” with red and white checked paper. Signed by Fromager Jean Verrier. Normandy is the home of Camembert. It was smooth, creamy and with great flavor. It was hard to move on to the other cheeses it was so good.
We had Spanish manchego — just, it’s been criticized as being the only Spanish sheep Americans know, but it’s a good, salty standby.
The blue: Stagnolia Blu (Italian for Blue Foil) was nice and creamy. We assume it’s cow cheese. The blue was a subtle blue.
A good cheese night.
