Raw milk is the key element in the production of high-quality dairy products. In France it is a real cult, in fact all cheeses to have the AOP designation must necessarily be raw milk. The reason is as follows: the link between the cow, the pastures and the artisan art specific to each region. In fact, raw milk must be processed within a few hours of milking, which means a product that encompasses all the flavor of the region of production.

Owner Pascal Beillevaire began his entrepreneurial adventure in the 1980s with the mission of producing true artisanal butter, as per his family tradition. He then started from village markets and regional events, and success was not long in coming. However, the fame and growth of the Beillevaire family's business, even international, has not changed Pascal's mission; in fact, it is still the only company in France that works with raw milk and churns butter in wooden churns. Not only butter production, but also a benchmark for cheese aging, with its own quarries scattered throughout the various AOP designation regions.
