Traditional farm production.
The Fermiers Basco-Béarnais Cooperative was created almost 40 years ago in the Aspe Valley, in the heart of the Béarnais Pyrenees. The Cooperative brings together nearly 20 farms that are all firmly committed to a centuries-old pastoral tradition, offering a range of 100% raw milk cheeses with a long ripening process, made by hand under the control of a technician, within collective salting rooms.
All products offer guaranteed quality based on origin, through the exceptional Ossau Iraty AOP and Tomme des Pyrenees IGP labels. Each cheese is made directly on the farm, by the farmer, using milk from their own herd. This is why the products are called “Farm Cheese”.
