MouCo PepBert

A twist on an old classic, MouCo PepBert (pronounced pep-bert, with a hard ‘t’) takes Camembert – our flagship cheese, our first love affair – and adds a generous helping of whole green peppercorns into the mix.

The results are unexpected, exciting, delicious.

The cheesemaking process softens the peppercorns, many of which are to be found in each bite. “Spicy” might be an overstatement, but not a big one.

The peppers add a complexity to the cheese not otherwise found—it’s perfect on a cracker all by itself, but especially wonderful melted atop a burger or sprinkled in your favorite mixed-green salad.

Perfect for cheese-lovers, of course, but pepper snobs (we know you’re out there) will find much to love here as well.

MouCo PepBert: Flavors and Aging Information

When Young: MouCo PepBert starts firm with a creamy texture, offering a tangy freshness complemented by the snappy, citrusy bite of green peppercorns. The heat is mild, but it adds a lively kick to the youthful cheese.

As It Ages: As PepBert ripens, it softens and develops a rich, buttery character. The green peppercorns begin to infuse the cheese more deeply, their citrus notes mellowing into a more harmonious blend with the tanginess of the Camembert, while the heat subtly intensifies.

Fully Aged: At 7-8 weeks, MouCo PepBert reaches its full maturity. The cheese becomes luxuriously creamy, with a balanced complexity where the lively heat from the softened green peppercorns dances with the rich, buttery flavors. The result is a delightful, nuanced cheese that’s both warming and satisfying, perfect for those who appreciate a bit of spice with their indulgence.
