Cheese Slices

SYNOPSIS

If the name Brie conjures up images of a mild creamy flat cheese covered with a pure white mould, chances are you have never experienced authentic Brie from Brie. Will visits the Ile de France region to learn more about the benchmarks of the style, Brie de Meaux and Brie de Melun, before visiting Brie's close cousin, Chaource, in the Champagne region. He then heads to the underground caves of Herves Mons to find out how this respected Affineur selects and matures cheeses to its optimum. He then meets Pascal Beillevaire to get a few tips from the largest specialist cheese retailer in France.
