Preheat oven to 400FIn a small saucepan, combine blackberries, sugar, and water. Bring to a boil on high heat, and then reduce to a simmer and let cook for approximately 12-15 minutes. The blackberries will become soft and bright in color and a pinkish purple syrup will form. Take off of the heat and drain the blackberries, keeping the syrup in a separate bowl. Set both aside.Take the cheese out of the wrapping and cut the top rind off, cutting only about ¼ inch down, just to take off the top rind. Place the cheese back into its wooden box, or directly on a parchment lined baking sheet, rind side down.Sprinkle the cheese with the thyme and sea salt. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until cheese if visibly melty (yum!)Take out of oven and drizzle with syrup. Top with the blackberries. Serve with French bread for dipping. Enjoy!
