Brillat-Savarin

Brillat-Savarin is a triple-cream cheese named in the 1930s by the famous Parisian cheese merchant Henri Androuet in honor of the French gastronome Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin (1755-1826). Bearing the name of the author of 'The Physiology of Taste,' this cheese possesses richness with approximately 75% fat content and delicate flavors reminiscent of cheesecake. Its white-mold exterior evokes cherry blossom petals, while its melt-in-the-mouth texture expresses the sentimental feelings of March's graduation season and expectations for new journeys. Available in two types - fresh and aged - the former offers fresh acidity and lightness, while the latter provides white-mold flavors and depth. As an embodiment of gastronomic philosophy, it symbolizes cultural value and spiritual richness beyond mere food, providing profound experiences at life's turning points.
