Boursin FAQ’s
What is Gournay Cheese?
When Francois Boursin first sold his creation, he was asked to classify it for customs purposes. He chose the name "Gournay" for his cheese, naming it for the small town in France where he grew up.
Today, every package of Boursin® is labeled "All Natural Gournay Cheese," the legal standard of identity for Boursin.
