Description
- REGION OF ORIGIN: France, Basque Pyrenees
- MILK: Pasteurized sheep's milk
- TASTING: This semi-firm paste feels luxuriously rich and buttery in the mouth. Notes of fresh grass and sweet cream play nicely with a toasted wheat and nut finish.
- SERVING: It should be a crime to serve this cheese even slightly chilled. Take full advantage of our affinage program by serving at room temperature.
- REVIVED: Health and flavor are improved by rehabilitation in our caves.
Once made by monks in the French Pyrenees, Ossau Iraty boasts over 3,000 years of cheesemaking tradition. Full flavored, pliant, and a joy to melt.
