European Score analysis

Lanquetot's Camembert Moulé à la Louche au Lait Cru achieves a perfect European Score of 100, placing it at the 50th percentile within the camemberts from thermised cow milk category, which contains 10 assessed products. The category is small, and the median position reflects competitive parity among a group that tends to perform well on European sourcing criteria. The breakdown shows company headquarters and manufacturing each at the maximum 35 points, distribution adding 15, and proximity contributing 5. Certifications score 0, despite the product holding a Concours Général Agricole gold medal and Made in France and Triman labels — these are quality or logistical indicators rather than organic or geographic protection certifications in the sense measured by the scoring methodology. Manufacturing is confirmed at the Société Fromagère d'Orbec facility in Orbec en Auge, a location with strong Norman cheesemaking heritage. Origins are declared as France, and the ingredients sub-score reaches the maximum 10. For a European-minded shopper, the score communicates a fully French and European supply chain, from the raw milk to the facility producing it. The gold medal from the Concours Général Agricole provides independent quality recognition, complementing the structural European provenance indicated by the score. At the median of its category, this camembert performs solidly within a small and competitive group.
