Bleu des Basques
Not For Sale - for Informational Purposes Only
Bleu des Basques' blue-gray veining is very fine, spreading evenly if not abundantly through a paste the color of butter. The texture of this gourmet cheese is semi-firm and creamy on the tongue; the flavor is full, nutty, buttery and faintly sweet.
This is not a salty or pungent blue, but a well-balanced, approachable gourmet cheese with plenty of character and strength. Bleu des Basques has a natural rind that develops over the course of its three-months maturation. In contrast to the Roquefort the penicillum develops without holes in the paste.
The glistening surface of Bleu des Basques is one indication that it comes from sheep's milk, which has almost twice the fat of cow's or goat's ...

P'tit Basque is a French sheep's milk cheese that has been around for only a little longer than 10 years; since 1997. P'tit Basque is sometimes compared to a Manchego, the great Spanish sheep cheese, but the similarities seem to limited to the rinds basket-weave markings.

The flavor is creamy and sweet with some saltiness, much softer than the Manchego or the Ossau-Iraty.
We sell this cheese as an entire wheel of 1.5 pounds and cut ...

Société Roquefort has been around since 1863. The secret of the manufacture of this great gourmet cheese lies in the cellars built in the 17th century. The air circulating in the cellars maintain the ideal conditions for the development of the subtle and unequalled flavor of Roquefort Société.
