From the same company that makes our ever-popular
P'tit Basque, comes Ossau. The generic name for this cheese is
Ossau-Iraty, which refers to two rivers in the Basque region of France - the homeland of this spectacularly delicious cheese. Also called
Brebis Pyrenees, which is simply French for
Sheep Cheese from the Pyrenees, it has a smooth, slightly oily texture and a wonderfully sweet flavor with hints of olive, hazelnut and fig. Aged for 90 days.
- Made from pasteurized sheep's milk.
