Created by 13th century monks and celebrated in the epic love poem ‘Roman de la Rose’, Pont l’Évêque is a soft, creamy cheese with subtle hints of salt and a sweet fruity tang. Its famous farmyard aroma, however, might be more of an acquired taste.
Made en carré (in a square) from cows’ milk in the Calvados region of Normandy, this smooth cheese is washed in brine as it matures within 5-6 weeks, which creates its distinctive golden rind.
