Pont-l’Evêque has a story that dates back to the 13th century. Surviving texts of the time specifically mention Angelot, the cheese from which Pont-l’Evêque was later developed.
“Pont” is “bridge” in French and this cheese is named after a bridge in a small seaside town between the Norman towns of Liseux and Deauville in Northwestern France.
Loved for its rich, creamy flavour and supple consistency, Pont-l’Evêque has a beige to orange rind that contributes to the piece-bodied flavour of the cheese that many enjoy. Its sweet taste with varied aromas: vegetal, grassy, lactic, creamy and buttery are reminiscent of the countryside of Normandy.
