The Earth Meets the Sea: Frères Bernard Ecume de Wimereux with Truffle
Crafted by the renowned Bernard family at the Ferme du Vert in Northern France, the Ecume de Wimereux is already a masterpiece of coastal cheesemaking. In this prestigious version, the cheese is carefully halved and filled with a rich preparation of black truffles (Tuber melanosporum or aestivum), creating a striking visual and flavor contrast.
The base cheese—named after the foam of the Wimereux waves—is naturally salted and aged to achieve an airy, whipped-butter texture. The truffle infusion permeates the creamy paste, ensuring that every bite delivers a perfect balance of salt, cream, and the intoxicating, musky aroma of the forest.
