Brie Noir

(Black Brie)

Brie noir or black brie is a French cheese with a distinctive dark color and a crumbly texture. The cheese is made from raw cow's milk. It ages for up to 2 years and develops an earthy, nutty, bitter, mushroomy, and acidic flavor.


Due to its sharp and intense flavors, many locals dunk it in coffee. It is believed that the cheese originated in the region of Seine-et-Marne, when people used to leave surplus brie to age a bit longer, so it became a staple for local laborers.
