šŸ€ Pure Irish Butter is more than just a spread—it’s a taste of Ireland’s lush pastures and centuries-old dairy traditions. Here’s what makes it so special:

🌿 What Sets It Apart

  • Grass-Fed Goodness: Made from the milk of cows that graze on Ireland’s rich, green grass for most of the year, giving the butter a golden hue and deep flavor.
  • High Butterfat Content: Typically contains 82% or more butterfat, making it creamier and more flavorful than standard butters.
  • Minimal Ingredients: Often just cream and salt, allowing the natural richness of the milk to shine through.
  • Distinctive Taste: Sweet, nutty, and slightly grassy with a velvety texture—ideal for both cooking and spreading.

🧈 Culinary Uses

  • Baking: Adds flakiness to pastries and richness to cakes and cookies.
  • Cooking: Enhances sauces, vegetables, and meats with a luxurious depth.
  • Simple Enjoyment: Best savored on warm bread, crumpets, or scones.

🧬 Nutritional & Cultural Notes

  • Rich in Nutrients: Contains omega-3s, vitamins A and K2, and CLA thanks to the cows’ natural diet.
  • Cultural Icon: Irish butter has roots in folklore and was once used in rituals and trade, especially through the historic Cork Butter Market.
