Specification

History of Brie from our supplier: 'The history of Brie de Meaux is close to that of France. It was under Charlemagne, who appreciated it enormously, that we begin to follow his prestigious epic. In 1407, Charles of Orléans seduced the ladies of the court with this cheese by accompanying it with a poem. The revolution also made it “the cheese of the people”. The revolutionary Lavallée, in 1793, said: “Brie cheese, loved by the rich and the poor, preached equality before it was suspected possible". However, it is Talleyrand who gives this cheese its supreme recognition. In 1793 he was
crowned “King of cheeses and cheese of kings”. Brie de Meaux received the A.O.C on August 18, 1980.'
