Bleu des Basque Cheese

The Facts:

Country: France
Milk Type: Pasteurized Sheep
Age: 2-3 Months 

Tasting Notes:

Using milk collected from over 250 local farmers, Bleu des Basque, firm blue cheese, with its natural rind, is aged in ancient cellars in the village.

The cheese is veined with blue-green coloured mold and has a unique flavour compared to other French blue cheeses. It isn't brined, so it's less salty, although still has a salty kick at the end. It has a lovely fruity taste and a tangy finish.

Pair with Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay.

Our cheese mongers hand cut every cheese to order. We will always try to cut the exact weight ordered, however your piece might be slightly over or under the amount listed. But please know that we cut it freshly and specifically for you.

If you order several cheeses, we will usually make up for shortcomings on weight, if any, on the other cheeses ordered.

All cheeses are wrapped in special cheese paper and sealed to preserve freshness during transit.

Every order includes all the necessary thermal packaging and ice packs required for current weather conditions. Our main focus is getting the freshest product delivered to your door.
