Bresse Bleu, or Bleu de Bresse was first made in the Bresse area of Burgundy, following WWII. Made from pasteurized whole milk, it is whipped and has a fine edible coating which is white in colour and has the aroma of mushrooms. The interior is smooth and creamy. Production of Bresse Blue was started with the objective of providing a milder alternative to blue cheese.

Bresse Bleu is rightly called the “Silk King” of blue cheeses, a title that reflects its exceptionally creamy and luxurious texture. This hybrid cheese combines two distinct styles: a soft, Brie-style exterior and a creamy blue-veined interior. The exterior gives it a gentle, mushroomy richness, while the interior offers a subtle, refined blue tang. Its texture is ultra-creamy and spreadable, making it perfect for savoring on its own or as part of a cheese platter. On the tongue, the buttery double-cream flavors are complemented by a mild, lingering “twang” from the blue veinsa harmonious balance of richness.
