An uncooked and pressed unpasteurized ewe's milk cheese, Ossau-Iraty is semi-hard in texture with a thick, buff rind marked with rust and grey molds. Beneath the brown and orange rind is an ivory white, supple and slightly grainy interior that has a creamy and buttery mouth feel. Flavors are herbaceous, nutty and fruity if the produce is from winter while the summer cheeses tend to reveal aromas of grass and flowers.
