Brebis Ossau
Country of Origin: France
Region: Aquitaine
Type of Milk: Sheep
Cheese Style: Firm
Flavor Profile: Medium
Producer: Cooperative
One of our most popular brebis. It is typically older than our other brebis and this can be felt in the texture that is more firm and in the flavor that has a stronger nuttiness and a bit more salt. This is an ideal cheese for pairing with robust reds (try an Irouleguy for a regional pairing) that might not work with lighter cheeses.
