Founded in 1932, Isigny is a French dairy manufacturer that produces a wide range of dairy products, from fresh milk to children's milk powder, cream and butter, with AOP certification for butter products. The Isigny region is located in the Normandy region, known as the "milk warehouse of France", where the fertile alluvial plain meets the brackish water of the sea and the wetlands, and produces milk rich in minerals and various trace elements, with a unique "taste of the sea".
 
The fresh milk used in Isigny butter is produced from grass-fed cows raised on the pastures of more than 190 communes in the region for more than seven months. The cream and water are initially separated by mechanical stirring within 48 hours after collection, and the cream is left in the barrel to mature for more than 18 hours, and then the fermented cream is stirred and rinsed to obtain butter with higher milk fat content and seasoned with salt. Due to the low fat content of fresh milk produced by grass-fed dairy cows, butter production consumes more material, and about 20L of fresh milk is consumed per kilogram of Isigny butter. However, grass-fed cow's milk is correspondingly higher in fat-soluble nutrients, and raw fresh milk is rich in natural iodine, vitamin A and carotene, giving the finished butter a natural golden buttercup color with a creamy and hazelnut scent. Although it is a mass-produced industrial butter, Isigny retains the traditional process and provides a rich flavor experience with high-quality milk sources.
 
Isigny's butters are available in unsalted and salted formats ranging from 500 to 10g and are available in jelly-like plastic boxes, as well as butter rolls for easy dosing and in regular blocks, tablets. However, Isigny does not only produce AOP standard butter, the milk source of non-AOP butter is not strictly limited, and the processing method is also more efficient, mainly in large packaging and wholesale sales. If you want to buy AOP butter, pay attention to whether there is a red and yellow certification label on the packaging. There are already domestic merchants who have imported Isigny's butter, which is more convenient to buy in e-commerce channels, and the price of 250g AOP butter rolls is about 30 yuan, only 120 yuan per kilogram, which is very cost-effective. Unlike other high-end artisanal AOP butters, Isigny butter has a shelf life of up to 12 months and can be stored for a longer period of time.
