Explore The Pairing

Spruce Tip Honey

An adventurous, bee-inspired pairing. To add a hint of pine to the sweetness of your honey, infuse it with spruce tips. This brings out the taste of wild fruits and citrus. Paired with the indulgent creaminess of Triple Crème Brie, it gives you and your guests a surprisingly sweet, delightful taste perfect for occasions in autumn or around the holidays.

Tip

Garnishing your cheeseboard with a few spruce tips will tie together the overall theme of your pairings, and the scent of pine will enhance the culinary aesthetic of the cheeseboard.

Artisanal Crisps

Not just a cheese delivery mechanism, crisps add extra punch to the party. When choosing what kind of artisanal crisps or crackers to use first think about some of the other foods you want to serve. For instance if you’re serving Triple Crème Brie with nuts, consider pairing it with a nutty crisp. This will highlight the subtle buttery notes of the cheese without overwhelming it. Keep in mind that what pleases you aesthetically is important too. Look for crisps that are visually appealing when placed next to your other pairings.

Cranberry Jam

Choose pairings that appeal to the eyes as well as the palate. Jams using seasonal fruits like cranberries are the perfect complement for holiday occasions. There is an inviting balance between the richness of the Triple Crème Brie and the tartness of the cranberries.

Tip

The citrus aroma of garnishes such as orange peel pairs well with the tangy flavor of the cranberry and will add to the appetite appeal.

President Triple Crème Brie

Our Triple Crème Brie took home gold at the American Cheese Society 2015. Thanks to its award-winning mild flavor and subtle buttery notes, it strikes a perfect balance that pairs well with a multitude of delicious foods and beverages.

Tip

For the perfect texture, set your Triple Crème Brie out an hour before serving.
