CHEESE OF THE MONTH Charleston Jersey Brie

Charleston Jersey Brie is a rich flavoursome brie style cheese made from Jersey cow milk , sourced from the Adelaide Hills . The unique flavour and development of the Charleston Jersey Brie is influenced by the co-existence of different moulds on its surface . These moulds ripen the cheese from the outside to the centre over a period of about six weeks from the make date . When the cheese is ripe it is soft and creamy in texture and develops rich complex “ farm yard ” and mushroom characteristics . As it ages the Charleston may develop some brownish spots on the outer surface . As the cheese is free of any preservatives , some discolouration on the outer rind is treated as a natural part of its maturation . Should this occur you will notice that the flavours will be stronger and more distinctive . The Charleston Jersey Brie is ideally suited on a cheese plate with fresh bread and seasonal fruit . For full flavour and texture development , serve at room temperature .
