A pungent washed-rind cheese from Burgundy, famously described by Brillat-Savarin as the king of all cheeses. Its orange rind is repeatedly washed with Marc de Bourgogne brandy during aging, producing an intensely aromatic exterior that gives way to a spoonable, creamy center. Holds AOP status since 1991.
