Le Grain d'Orge Affiné au Calvados is very similar to Livarot. This gourmet cheese is made in the Pay d'Auge region of France according to Normandy tradition. The rind is removed from a semi-cured Camembert and then soaked in Calvados (eau de vie).
The cheese is not as pungent as a Livarot, but it will get more so during aging. Le Grain d’Orge has a fruity and milky flavor with a hint of mushrooms
