Bleu Des Basques - Brebis is a French blue cheese produced by Onetik, a well-regarded cheesemaker situated in the Basque region. This cheese is distinctive for being made from sheep's milk, in contrast to the more common cow's milk used in many blue cheeses.


The texture of Bleu Des Basques - Brebis is creamy yet crumbly with a rich, intense flavor profile that blends the characteristic piquancy of blue cheese with sweet, buttery notes typical of sheep's milk cheeses. The veins of blue mold throughout the cheese add both a visual appeal and a sharp, tangy flavor that contrasts beautifully with the milk’s natural sweetness.


Perfect for a cheese board, this cheese also melts well, making it versatile in culinary applications.
