Extra Creamy Brie Cheese

It starts with the slim rind that yields to your knife like a layer of snowy ice resting on silken water. Beneath, thick and velvety, lies the cream of this white cheese, waiting for you. Let it melt in your mouth, you’ll get hints of plain yoghurt and dark chocolate. Give in to its seductive notes, savour its mild aftertaste, and enjoy the same rich afterglow you’d get from a well-marbled steak. Handcrafted in open vats using traditional methods to achieve its thin rind and unique softness throughout.
