A famed artisan French butter, from the milk of cows of the small village of Poitiers and La Rochelle. Known as one -if not the best- of the best butters in France, Echire butter is served in the finest dining establishments (which is why the French covet this butter and keep 85% of the production within France). This sophisticated butter has AOC designation which protects its origins and methods of production (just like fine wine) and is produced mostly by hand. Its light texture that comes from ripened cream and its subtle, tangy flavor - much like creme fraiche make this butter divine. The adorable little basket makes this for a pretty presentation.
