Etorki

Etorki is a French cheese originating from the Mauléon-Licharre commune in the Pyrénées. This hard cheese is made with pasteurized sheep's milk. It has smooth, creamy, and supple texture, earthy aroma, and a mild, sweet flavor that is reminiscent of burnt caramel.

Etorki is pulp-pressed and uncooked, then left to mature for 3 to 6 months. It is recommended to serve it with fruit and bread, or use it in sandwiches. For the most authentic experience, pair it with Txacoli, a slightly sparkling white wine from Basque.
