About Coeur de Lion
Coeur de Lion (meaning "Lionheart") is a prestigious French cheese brand created in 1990 at the Vire cheese factory in Calvados, Normandy. The brand was launched with their signature Camembert and has since become one of France's most beloved cheese names, with more than three products sold per second in French households. Made in Normandy, a region celebrated for the exceptional quality and flavour of its milk, Coeur de Lion cheeses are distinguished by their perfect balance between strength and mildness, power and smoothness. Their creamy texture and balanced character have made them a staple on French tables and increasingly popular internationally. Coeur de Lion is owned by Savencia Fromage & Dairy (formerly known as Bongrain), one of France's leading cheese companies. The brand sits alongside other Savencia icons including Le Rustique, Caprice des Dieux, and Saint Albray. Their range includes whole Camembert, portion-sized Camembert, Coulommiers, and Pie d'Angloys - a washed-rind specialty cheese. For UK shoppers seeking authentic French soft-ripened cheese, Coeur de Lion offers supermarket-accessible quality from Normandy.
