Le Beurre Bordier is known among culinary and dairy enthusiasts as “the world’s best butter.” Here’s where you can score a bar
Butter is the essence of life. It’s what gives dishes that extra oomph, and it’s also a pantry staple everyone has in their homes. It’s also no secret that everyone at Nolisoli loves butter. We’ve even ranked the best ones you can find at grocery stores.
Our favorites still stand, but there’s finally a way you can get your hands on the world’s best butter without flying to France and hoping it gets home without melting (or ending up in a customs garbage disposal).
Le Beurre Bordier is known in culinary (and butter enthusiast) circles as “the best butter in the world.” It hails from the French region of Brittany, where they use milk from grass-fed cows that graze on the countryside. The butter is handmade, which is rare these days due to the preference for faster, cheaper, mechanical processes.
The Bow Tie Duck is an online deli that sells unique and hard-to-acquire ingredients from all around the world. It’s been a long time coming, but they’re finally stocking Le Beurre Bordier on their shelves.
You’ll have eight different flavors to choose from: unsalted (P799), salted (P799), olive oil lemon (P899), Espelette pepper (P899), Madagascar vanilla (P899), smoked salt, seaweed (P899), and yuzu (P899).
You might think that this is an insane amount of money to pay for a slab of milk fat, but butter is also edible joy. And if you’re looking to enjoy one of the best butters you’ll likely have in your life, the price might just be worth it.
