Category: CHEESE & DAIRY

P'tit (petite) Basque is a traditional cheese from the Pyrenees, made with pure sheep's milk. Its molded rind is a reminder of the wicker molds which were originally used to made the cheese. P'tit Basque is a full-flavored cheese with a deep nutty flavor. Petit Basque works well with soft, dry fruit and toasted nuts and can also be served with crusty baguettes or crisp wheat crackers or shredded over fresh roasted vegetables, like potatoes, cauliflower, or broccoli.

Eva ★★★★★

Brought this to a cheese board last night and it was gone in minutes—the sheep's milk gives it such a rich, nutty flavor. Love that the rind texture reminds me of the traditional wicker molds, a nice rustic touch.

Lucy ★★★★★

The rind really does look like those old wicker molds—it's a nice rustic touch. Creamy and mild for a sheep's milk cheese, though I wish it had a bit more of that earthy tang. Still, it melted beautifully on toast.

Aurora ★★★★★

The rind on this P'tit Basque has a lovely rustic texture, and the sheep's milk is rich and creamy without being too sharp. I sliced it thin for a cheese board and it was the first thing to disappear.
