(based on 14 ratings)
Located in: Cheese, France
Pave d'Affinois is a simple, white-rinded cheese with a pleasing finish. Made in small, 5.3-ounce squares that are individually wrapped, this cheese is reminiscent of a Brie or a Camembert. It is perfect for those looking for something about the size of a Chaource with a slightly milder flavor. With its delicious richness, this double cream cheese provides an unforgettable tasting experience. It gets its character from the familiar flavor of a cow's milk cheese with a slightly grassy finish. It is great as part of a gift or perfect at a luncheon with just a few friends.
  • Best enjoyed within seven days of delivery.
  • Made from pasteurized cow's milk.

Comments about Pave d'Affinois:

This is one of my favorites. It is extremely smooth and creamy. It is consistent every time. It is hard not to finish this cheese in one sitting. I usually eat it with toasted baguette but it is also wonderful with any type of cracker. Order two, one is not enough. You wont regret it.

Comments about Pave d'Affinois:

I have almost abandoned my former favorite cheese in favor of d'Affinois. I have never had a bad experience with this lovely cheese. It's wonderful at room temperature with water crackers or with pears. If you like the brie/camembert/triple cream types, do yourself a favor and buy this instantly! The only possible drawback is immediate addiction!

I was pretty amazed by this cheese. The first time I tried it I ended up eating the whole 6 oz square for breakfast!

One of the best cheeses I've ever had.

Comments about Pave d'Affinois:

Simply Delicious! Creamy and buttery taste that is just delightful! It's described as similar to a brie but this is far and away better than brie. Much more full bodied and no "wang".
This size is great for a few people to share with wine and some bread and fruit.
I give it the Five stars because it truly is perfect and could NOT be any better.

This is a mild, soft cheese. Much like Brie, but without the sharpness. Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys sitting down with cheese and crackers for a snack. Wonderful for a nice cheese plate. Great with pears.

This is the perfect cheese for a very European meal. Bread, fruit, cheese, nuts, olives, maybe a little shaved meat selection...add wine, and it's an outstanding meal or hors d'oeuvre.
