Agour Ossau Iraty

Ossau-Iraty is a raw milk, pressed sheep’s cheese from the Ossau Valley and Irati Forest in the Pyrennes.  It is the only French sheep’s milk cheese, besides Roquefort, granted AOC.

 

An uncooked and pressed cheese, Ossau-Iraty is semi-hard in texture with a thick, buff rind marked with rust and gray molds. Beneath the brown and orange rind is an ivory white, supple and slightly grainy interior that has a creamy and buttery mouth feel. Flavours are herbaceous, nutty and fruity if the produce is from winter while the summer cheeses tend to reveal aromas of grass and flowers.

 

Minimum Order of $25 (includng all items) to ship cheese, thank you for your understanding
