Tasting Notes: Savoury, Boozy, Yoghurt
Vegetarian: No
Langres is easily recognised by its vibrant orange rind, developed through up to eight careful washes. The first involves annatto, a natural dye derived from plants, followed by repeated rinses in a solution containing either Marc de Champagne or Marc de Bourgogne—spirits distilled from grape pomace. These washes gradually soften the cheese’s fresh, yogurt-like core, encouraging a creamier texture near the rind. They also infuse it with a subtle, fruity kick and a hint of boozy warmth on the finish.
