Description
Pont-l'Évêque
The cheese takes its name from the little town of Pont l'Évêque, between Deauville and Lisieux. Pont l'Évêque comes in two basic styles; the first (carried by Sheridans) is brushed regularly during ripening to produce a whitish pink rind with a slightly beige hue. This rind produces a soft long-lasting cheese. The second style involves the frequent washing of the rind with salt water during affinage. This produces a firmer, stronger tasting cheese with a more orange coloured rind. Pont l'Évêque is said to be the oldest Norman style of cheese still in production. The flavour is characterised by a certain nutty sweetness finish and faint smokiness.
