  • Pyrénées-Atlantiques, France

Made in Helette, in the Basque region of the Pyrenees, Ossau Iraty is said to be one of the first cheese recipes ever made, dating back to around 3,000 years ago. Beneath its amber, mold-dappled rind lies an ivory paste that is both slightly granular and very rich, boasting toasted wheat aromas and nutty, grass like sweet flavors. It is sometimes called the “farmers dessert for it’s creamy and buttery texture and its fruity, slightly floral flavour.
