The fame of Isigny butter goes back to the 16th century. How do we explain the fact that the gourmets of the day favoured Isigny butter? It is simple! The Isigny terrain has the advantage of a mild, damp climate, is near the sea and enjoys the benefits of the Bessin and Cotentin marshes. The cows which graze there feed on grass rich in iodine, beta-carotene and trace elements. The quality of Isigny butter reflects all these natural advantages.

It is impossible to confuse Isigny butter with any other butter. It is yellow like buttercups, it has a faint taste of hazelnuts and is rich in vitamin A. All these qualities were noted in the Appellation d'Origine Controle (AOC), which has been in force since 1986.
