Did you know ?
Langres was originally prepared at farms using warm cow’s milk poured into terra cotta moulds called “fromottes”. Once turned out, the cheese had to dry on lime tree leaves and then be matured on oat straw. This has been an “Appellation d’Origine Protégée” (Protected Designation of Origin) cheese since 2009, from the plateau where the town of Langres is located.
Langres Selection Affineur is produced in the Champagne region
