About Etorki Cheese
Etorki is a hard cheese made from pasteurized sheep's milk in the Mauléon-Licharre region of Pyrénées-Atlantiques, France. Its texture is firm yet creamy, showcasing the craftsmanship of artisan cheese-making traditions. The cheese offers a sweet flavor profile, with hints of burnt caramel that provide a pleasing contrast. Its aroma is earthy, adding to the sensory experience. The natural rind encases an ivory-colored interior, giving it an appealing appearance. Etorki is often enjoyed on its own or paired with fruits and nuts for a simple yet satisfying snack.
