Petit Livarot AOC - Details
An ancient cheese of Normandy, created by monks, it takes its name from the town of Livarot. Historically, it is nicknamed "The Colonel" because it is banded with five stripes like a French Colonel. These were originally pieces of a sedge grass to help the cheese keep its shape but are now pieces of orange-colored paper. Typical of washed rind cheeses, Livarot is not for the meek. The aroma can be strong and smelly with bold, spicy flavors on the palate.
Recommended wines: Pomeral, Tokay, Pinot Gris d'Alsace
