France's Basque region has many imposters (some quite good), but this one is authentic. One of the world's most delicious and indescribable cheeses. Its flavor is smack in the middle of the intersection between nutty, sweet, toasty, savory, saline, tangy, and butter-fatty - none overpowers the others. The texture is semi-firm, smooth, and it melts in your mouth. A truly amazing cheese.
