Coeur de Bray Neufchatel cheese originates from the village of Neufchatel-en-Bray in northern Normandy. Made from pasteurized cow's milk, it is one of France's oldest cheeses, dating back as far as 1035. Legend goes that French farm girls fell in love with English soldiers during the Hundred Years War and started making heart shaped cheeses to show their love. Neufchatel has a grainy, close textured and thick paste covered with a soft, downy, velvety bloomy rind. Matured for 8 to 10 weeks, the taste and texture is reminiscent of a Camembert; Mushroomy, rich, nutty and slightly yeasty.

Coeur de Bray Neufchâtel is a bloomy rind from the Normandy region in France. The name "Coeur de Bray" means "Heart of Bray" because the cheese is often made in a heart shape. The texture is firmer and more crumbly than a typicaly brie cheese, with a distinct rich and tangy flavour.
