Is Paris emerging as a beacon of French artisanal innovation? After urban honey, craft beer, and 100% Parisian wine, cheese made in the heart of the City of Light is next. This ambitious project comes from Pierre Coulon, a 33-year-old master cheesemaker who reversed the trend: leaving his Loire-Atlantique farm to set up shop in Paris.
Pierre's vision is La Laiterie Parisienne, producing a diverse range of cheeses using techniques honed on a global tour—from Salers and Brie to Tomme and Gouda. All will feature organic cow's, goat's, or sheep's milk sourced from Île-de-France farms. His crowdfunding campaign has already secured nearly €13,000 of the €40,000 goal. We wish him every success!
