The last Creation of Agour fromagerie. Urdina is a firm texture, almost dry, but with a surprising creaminess. The urdina has an amazing spicy lift and a lingering flavor, the saltiness balances the wildness of the blue.

A little history
Agour Ossau Iraty is made in the rugged mountains known as the Basque region, on the border between France and Spain. The black- and red-faced Manech ewes, which are renowned for their magnificent curled horns, are milked twice each day from the end of Spring to early Autumn. Agour collects the milk directly from the farmers every day, then transforms it into cheese using a combination of modern methods and respect for tradition
