Beurre de Baratte Demi-Sel is an exquisite artisanal butter crafted using traditional French techniques. Made from the highest quality milk sourced from carefully selected cows in Normandy, this butter undergoes a meticulous process to achieve its signature taste and texture.
The churning process takes place in wooden barrels, a time-honored method that enhances the butter’s smooth, creamy consistency and deep, rich flavor. After churning, the butter is hand-shaped and delicately infused with fleur de sel—a premium sea salt harvested from the Île de Ré, known for its subtle briny crunch and ability to enhance the butter’s natural creaminess.
