Cheese Reviews

Délice de Bourgogne is a decadent triple-cream gourmet cheese and was the fruit of the imagination of the famous gastronome of the 18th century, Brillat Savarin. The remarkably pungent, somewhat moldy aroma of Délice de Bourgogne belies the velvet-smooth texture and subtle taste of this cheese. The cheese is similar in appearance and texture to the classic Brie. The outside is yellowish-white in color, with a soft, chalk-like dusty rind. The first layer is soft and smooth and stark white in color. The center of the Délice cheese is thicker and more consistent than the outside layer and is comparable to that of cream cheese. The blending of the stronger flavored exterior and the more subtle and soft interior makes Délice de Bourgogne an unusually delicate gourmet cheese; creating a smooth, melt-in-the-mouth texture. We cut and wrap this cheese in wedges of 8 ounces and 1 pound.

We have a weekend "French" market in our community, a good selection of fresh vegetables at the local, meat without hormones, etc. There is a small shop, the Marquis has a number of local and imported cheeses a bench in the market has had – I tried the Le Delice de Bourgogne from Lincet first two or three years. I bought a piece of that cheese. I bought a piece of at least a couple of times every month od. I buy no other Brie, now only Delice. Has agreamy wonderful texture and flavor rich smooth, slightly nutty and extraordinary. I go to off-season in a local cheese shop for cheese itself. We could have 6-8 favorite cheese, but this is the list above.
