Description Le Napoleon Brebis

Meet Le Napoleon Brebis, a delicious French sheep's cheese originating from the rugged Pyrenees. This cheese is traditionally prepared from thermized sheep's milk and matures for about 10 months, resulting in a beautiful, compact ivory paste under a striking rind. The texture is surprisingly supple, while the flavor is characterized by sweet, buttery and nutty notes with a slightly rustic undertone. A true treat for lovers of refined sheep's cheese.

A Masterpiece from the Pyrenees

Le Napoleon is a tribute to traditional cheese making in the French region of Comminges, at the foot of the Pyrenees. The name was not chosen by chance, but refers to the imposing mountain 'Nez de Napoléon', whose silhouette proudly adorns the label. The milk comes from local Lacaune sheep, known for the rich quality of milk that is perfect for making cheeses with character.

Thanks to its beautiful balance between sweet and savory, the Napoleon Brebis is incredibly versatile. It is of course indispensable on a well-composed cheese board, preferably accompanied by dark cherry fruit or quince jelly. Try shaving it over a fresh salad or combine it with a light, fruity red wine from the south of France. Let yourself be surprised by this French delicacy!
