FERME DU CASTERIEU
Go there and contact
Since 1987, Ferme du Castérieu has been making its cheeses from pasteurized milk. The 100 cows and 300 Lacaune ewes are fed with feed grown on the farm, ensuring optimum milk quality. After 5 stages of production, the cheese is aged for 4 months at 12 degrees in the ripening cellar. Watch the animals in the meadows or in the barn, then head to the store, where Nicolas will welcome you. Taste cow's cheese, ewe's cheese or the tasty ewe-cow mix, and leave with a tomette or tome of each.

Message from Management
Founded in 1987 in Orleix, a village north of Tarbes, Ferme du Castérieu produces delicately flavored cheeses made from pasteurized milk. The farm's 100 cows and 300 ewes are fed exclusively with products from the farm, guaranteeing optimal milk quality. The company offers three natural cheese variants: cow's milk, sheep's milk or a harmonious combination of the two. These products are available in a variety of formats, from 0.3 to 2.5 kg, with specialties such as Tomette, Tome and Bûche. In the boutique, you can also discover original creations such as Castérieu de vache au fenugrec or moelleux vache. Production follows a rigorous six-step process: milk preparation (stirring, adding lactic ferments, and maintaining a temperature of 32 degrees), coagulation, curdling, pressing, salting, and ripening. The cheeses are then matured for at least four months under specific conditions, at 12 degrees, before being offered in stores.
The perfect place to enjoy exceptional products in every bite!
