Heritage and Philosophy
Produced by a skilled affineur in Burgundy, this cheese embodies the region’s passion for soft, creamy cheeses that elevate simple ingredients into luxurious statements. The packaging, styled like a cave d’affinage, reminds us that refinement doesn’t always require grandeur—sometimes it comes in small, perfectly ripened rounds.

A cousin of the famed Délice de Bourgogne and Brillat-Savarin, Crémeux de Bourgogne aux Truffes sets itself apart with the indulgent addition of real truffle, layered subtly through its centre to complement, not overwhelm.

Flavor and Texture
Texture: Dense and mousse-like when young, evolving into a melting, spreadable creaminess as it ripens.

Flavour: Opens with lactic sweetness and cultured cream tang, followed by the savoury depth of truffle. The rind brings a gentle hint of mushroom and spice, especially as the cheese matures.

Aroma: Buttery and fresh with earthy truffle and a touch of cellar bloom—enticing without excess.

Appearance
A petite, cylindrical wheel with a soft, blooming white rind that wrinkles gently as it ages. The interior is pale ivory, marbled with a fine layer of truffle running through the centre.

Pairing Suggestions
Serve with: Dense fruit bread or toasted brioche, strawberries, or ripe figs.

Drink with: Champagne or a classic Crémant de Bourgogne, a blonde beer, or even a glass of chilled Pilsner.

Occasions: Perfect for a celebratory brunch, an indulgent apéro, or the final flourish to a festive cheeseboard.

A Truffled Jewel from Burgundy
Crémeux de Bourgogne aux Truffes proves that great things come in small formats. With its harmonious blend of richness, creaminess, and aromatic truffle, it’s an invitation to slow down and savour each bite. A charming gift, a conversation starter, and above all—a cheese to remember.
