Unlike our other French Camembert, this one comes from Normandy, where Camembert was first created in 1791 by Marie Harel. During the French Revolution, a recalcitrant priest from Brie arrived at the Manor of Beaumoncel, in the village of Camembert, and was hidden there by Marie Harel, a farmer. Following the direction of this priest, she created Camembert cheese. The recipe was a success and her children and grandchildren continued the family tradition. Over time, word spread and Marie’s cheese became famous all over the world._x005F_x000D_ Camembert Cheese Le Chatelain is an excellent example of this cheese, with a recipe that is true to the original. It is succulent, ripe, rich, and creamy.
