Idiazabal

Specialised

Raw Latxa and Carranzana sheep milk, pressed, aged at least two months, sometimes lightly smoked โ€” a practice that began with cheese kept in the smoke of a shepherdโ€™s hut rather than as a flavour choice. โš  ITS PROTECTED ZONE COVERS EUSKADI AND MOST OF NAVARRE, and that is a production rule, not a claim that everything inside it is Basque.

What is recorded

  • The Idiazabal designation covers the Basque Autonomous Community and most of Navarre and requires raw milk from Latxa or Carranzana ewes. That is a production rule about milk and territory โ€” it is not a statement that everything inside the zone is culturally Basque. documented
