Pont L’Évêque – Soft Washed Rind Cheese from Normandy
Pont L’Évêque is a classic French washed-rind cheese with a soft, creamy interior and a subtly funky kick. Its rich, buttery flavor is balanced by a savory, slightly tangy rind that develops its signature amber hue after a careful wash on the seventh day. A true farmhouse staple, it’s perfect with crusty bread, cider, or a glass of Pinot Noir—earthy, elegant, and totally crave-worthy.
