recently my work, visco fine foods, hosted a cheese & wine night for industry customers...we tasted over 20 visco imported cheeses from italy, france & spain all matched with imported wines from bouchon wines. one of the stand out cheeses of the evening (for me) was ossau iraty from france. I love the nutty, creaminess of this cheese...soooo delicious. it is a traditional, unpasteurized, semi-soft cheese with a natural rind & is made with the milk of manech ewes. usually matured for a min of 3mths & with age the cheese becomes stronger in flavour. wine match (i learnt on the night) would be cotes de st mont.

Lovely sheeps milk cheese. Jess
Just the other day I picked small sample of this cheese and then I noticed that you blogged about it. I agree, this was a very gentle and creamy delicious cheese! By the way I love your blog, your photographs are amazing! Thanks for sharing! :)
