French Camembert Cheese

Roquefort AOP Societe Bee Blue Cheese

With Roquefort’s fine, milky-white body veined with emerald green, and its well-balanced flavor, this cheese has been appreciated for generations. The secret of Roquefort’s manufacture lies in the cellars built in the 17th century. Thanks to the fleurines that allow the air to circulate in the cellars, Société’s master cheese-makers are able to maintain the relative humidity near to saturation point. These are the ideal conditions for the development of the subtle and unequalled flavor of Roquefort Société.

In accordance with the AOC Roquefort regulations, the production of Roquefort requires whole, raw sheep’s milk. In order to be used in Roquefort production, this milk must come from within the Roquefort region, and from the ewe’s of the Lacaune breed. Roquefort Société is delicious on a baguette, salad, or melted on a steak. Enjoy with your favorite bottle of Sauternes for a delicious ending to any memorable meal.

Buche de Chevre

This wonderful goat’s milk cheese, from Poitou in the Loire Valley, comes to us in handcrafted wooden crates containing two, four-pound logs of the most exquisite chevre we have ever tasted! Each Buche de Chevre is aged for two months, during which time it develops a hard, edible crust complete with a bloomy white mold coating. It is sharp and tangy near the rind and gets progressively richer and creamier toward the center. When enjoying this cheese, you savor a delightful combination of flavors and textures in each bite. Buche de Chevre is a true delicacy that begs for a warm, crusty French baguette and a glass of robust red wine from neighboring Bordeaux, or a crisp White from the Loire Valley.

Charles Arnaud Comte AOP Reserve 12 Months Aged

Made from a centuries-old recipe, 70-pound wheels of Comté have been produced since the reign of Charlemagne, when there were no separate entities named France and Switzerland. Comté has the highest production figures of all the French AOC cheeses, as cheese makers work to satisfy the world’s hunger for this exceptional cheese.

When it comes to acquiring flavor, Comté cannot be hurried. These Reserve wheels are aged for one year, resulting in a sweet and nutty masterpiece with less bite than its twin from Switzerland. Distinguished by a black label, this Comté is hand-selected by Entremont, ensuring the highest quality.

Comté has a satiny, ivory-colored body and a scattering of holes the size of a hazelnut. A traditional fondue cheese, Comte can also be shredded, sliced, grated, and chunked in addition to being melted.

Premium French Chocolate

French chocolatier Michel Cluizel chocolate bars are either made from blended cocoas from various plantations across the world, or they are produced from the beans of a single plantation.

Michel Cluizel has been making chocolate in the southern Normandy region of France to an exclusively high standard, in the French chocolate-making tradition, since 1948.

3 Little Pigs – Saucisson Sec

Les Trois Petits Cochons (The Three Little Pigs) started in 1975 as a small charcuterie in the heart of New York’s Greenwich Village. Founders Alain Sinturel and Jean Pierre Pradié cooked and offered pâtés and other French specialties to the neighborhood gourmets. They soon received rave reviews by such notables as Craig Clairborne, Mimi Sheraton, James Beard, and others. Once word got out, they began making pâtés for other restaurants around Manhattan. By 1990, demand forced them to expand their operation. Today, they make their pâtés in their kitchen, House of Bricks, located in Wilkes-Barre, PA. Les Trois Petits Cochons is recognized for its excellence as a leader in the specialty-food business and industry it helped to create. They use all-natural, high quality ingredients, and craft small, handmade batches.

Their manufacturer, Henri Marie, has been satisfying the most discriminating palates in France since 1938.

Prized by chefs and home cooks around the world, Edmond Fallot mustard is one pantry essential you don’t want to be without.
