Nicest Brie! So tasty and creamy!

I've had a few different Castello cheeses. This and their creamy blue cheese are both gorgeous to eat. This brie comes as a complete small wheel. As with all brie, it has a soft rind, that is perfectly good to eat. Perfect to cut a slice from and have with a salad or on a biscuit. Even lovelier if you bake the whole thing in the oven for 10-15 minutes, to give you a wonderful soft gooey starter. Great for dipping celery or your favourite bread stick into. Fat content is obviously quite high, because that's what makes it so wonderful soft and creamy. I will happily continue to buy. I hope you found this review helpful.

The smell is stronger than the taste. Very Mild taste. It feels like a quality product but it's quite mid. I'm originally from Sardinia and have a good understanding of handmade cheese and Italian cheese. This sadly doesn't hit the mark for me. I'd advise to hermetically seal it - its smell in the fridge is STRONG.

I tend to use this when I fancy a Brie and bacon sandwich. Spread your bread on one side with mayo the other side with sweet chilli relish - be generous with both. On the mayo side arrange fresh rocket, watercress or lambs lettuce whilst cooking your favourite bacon. Slice the Brie to pound coin thickness and place on relish side. When your bacon is cooked you can either use the residual heat to soften the Brie in the sandwich or lightly melt the cheese first under the grill. It’s up to you, it’s your choice. Or let the bacon cool completely and use that way not melting the cheese at all. Either way, it’s a lush sandwich made yummy using castello.

I bought it because it said ‘mild’. I’m not a fan of strong cheeses. It was absolutely lovely. I’ve used it in a toastie with some cheddar and cranberry sauce. I also made a sandwich with some turkey, brie, cranberry sauce and baby spinach on a lovely seeded loaf. I would definitely recommend this. I’ll certainly be buying it again. It also arrived with just over one month best before date which was really good although I opened it straight away as I couldn’t wait to try it.
