Tips from the cheese maker

The ideal temperature to keep Pur Brebis Pyrénées is 8 to 10°C. We advise to wrap the Pur Brebis Pyrénées cheeses with a fresh film and to place it ideally in the crisper of your refrigerator. The wrapping plays an invaluable role in preventing your cheeses from drying out and losing their flavor. The temperature of the crisper (about 10°C) reproduces the ripening conditions, this humid and fresh environment allows them to ripen as they should. It is recommended to take the cheese out of the refrigerator one hour before serving it: this last step will allow your cheese to fully express its aromas, sometimes broken under the effect of the cold. Pure Pyrenean Ewe cheeses go well with full-bodied red wines and full-bodied white wines from the South-West of France, such as Béarn-Bellocq, Irouléguy, Jurançon, Madiran... And they are also well associated with Bordeaux wines or Crozes-Hermitage. They go well with black cherry confit, apples, eggplant.

Originating from the Atlantic Pyrenees, in Béarn and the Basque Country, these pressed cheeses are enjoyed by young and old alike on all the tables of France and beyond!

The Pure Ewe Pyrenees cheeses are some 3 000 years of history, tradition and know-how that each shepherd, craftsman and producer strives to develop in order to make their passion better known.

Around two sectors, farm and dairy, quality and innovation are the rhythm of this market which has been growing for several years.

These cheeses, imbued with the aromas of our mountains, are authentic, tasty, subtle and fragrant. Inimitable and irreplaceable local products.

The Pure Pyrenean Ewe cheeses are made from ewe's milk, a milk of exceptional quality coming mainly from three breeds of animals, representative of the region : the Basco Béarnaises and the Manech, with red or black heads. If the milk of these ewes is exceptional, it is also very rare : it takes 22 ewes to obtain the quantity equivalent to the milking of a single cow !

The Basco Béarnaise and Manech ewes are local and rustic breeds, whose milk brings the aromas, the finesse and all the originality of the Pur Brebis Pyrénées cheeses.

Symbols of the Basque mountains, the Manech red-headed ewes are the "privileged" breed for the production of Pure Pyrenean Ewe Cheeses, and are also the most numerous in the Atlantic Pyrenees.
