Located in: Cheese, France

This authentic AOC French butter contains crunchy sea-salt crystals collected by hand from Ile de Ré. Milk is collected daily in Charentes-Poitou. The cream is then matured for 18 hours, with a slow churning process in little batches. It won the Gold medal at Concours Général Agricole de Paris.

Comments about La Baratte des Gourmets:

My wife and I love Paris, especially the butter. It has a distinct taste all its own which is unique to France. My idea of heaven is buying croissants from Paul's in Saint Germain du Pres sitting at a table outside, amply spreading on butter to a warm croissant and drinking a nice Bordeaux. It is Nirvana (and I don't mean the band).

Comments about La Baratte des Gourmets:

While I used it for toasted bread and other daily uses for butter, I found it superb melted for crab legs and lobster. It seemed to be almost "clarified" as is. The salt added to it was perfect. Very good high quality product at a reasonable price.
