Langres cheese is a traditional French cheese made from cow's milk, originating from the Champagne-Ardenne region. It is known for its distinctive cylindrical shape and a soft, creamy texture. The cheese has a washed rind, which gives it a slightly orange color and a strong aroma. Typically aged for about three weeks, Langres cheese has a rich, buttery flavor with a hint of earthiness. It is often enjoyed on its own or paired with crusty bread and fruit. This cheese is also recognized for its unique feature of having a small depression on top, which can hold a splash of Champagne or other beverages.
