Normandy cheese refers to a variety of cheeses produced in the Normandy region of France. This area is known for its rich pastures and dairy farming, which contribute to the unique flavors and textures of its cheeses. Popular types include Camembert, Brie, and Livaro, each with distinct characteristics and production methods. The cheeses of Normandy are often made from cow's milk, although some varieties may use goat's or sheep's milk. They are typically creamy and can range from soft to semi-hard.
