P’Tit Basque is a French sheep milk cheese that is produced in the Pyrenees Mountains that form the border with Spain. The famous Ossau-Iraty cheese and Idiazabal cheese are also produced in this area. This mountainous region is the home to both goat and sheep herders but it is the sheep cheeses that are the most noteworthy. The french word for sheep is brebis and the cheeses are known as “fromage de brebis.”
