This is the Roscoff Onion butter from Maison Bordier, the artisan beurrier working out of Saint-Malo in Brittany since 1985. The cream is cultured and then hand-malaxed on a wooden wheel, a technique unique to their atelier that gives the butter its signature pliable, silky texture straight out of the fridge.
The Roscoff onion is the pink AOP variety grown a couple hours west along the Brittany coast, prized for how sweet it stays without turning sharp. Folded into the fresh butter, it hums through the cream in a gentle savory-sweet way, more toasted-allium than bite, with the cultured tang doing all of the lift underneath. Spread it on a warm baguette and you get that fresh-yogurt front, a slow onion sweetness in the middle, and a clean finish that fades before it overstays.
A finishing butter in the true sense, the one you pull out for a table of good bread, seared scallops, or a plate of roasted potatoes when you want the fat to be the point.
Silky and spreadable straight from the fridge, with that pliable hand-malaxed texture Bordier is known for — closer to whipped cream than to a stick of supermarket butter.
The cream is rich and lightly cultured, and the Roscoff onion sits on top of it with a gentle sweet-savory hum. Not aggressive, but assertive enough that you know it's there.
The dairy fades pretty quickly, and then the sweet onion note lingers on the back of the palate for a beat before it lets go.
This is a cultured butter through and through, so the fresh-cream and yogurt tang are front and center, coating the palate the way only a high-butterfat European butter does.
A quiet browned-cream note underneath the culture, more toasty than nutty, giving the onion something warm to sit on.
The Roscoff onion brings a mild vegetal, alliaceous warmth, sweet rather than sharp, no barnyard.
No heat and no bite from the onion — Roscoff is a sweet pink variety, so it reads as gentle allium, never pungent.
None rind
No rind. This is a fresh cultured butter sold in a 125g bar.
Cultured Butter with Roscoff Onion stands on its own, but the right partners turn a wedge into a moment. Regional pairings first — they were built for each other.
Bright, high-acid drinks cut the high-butterfat richness while letting the sweet Roscoff onion note read through.
This is a finishing butter — the classic move is a thick smear on warm sourdough or a rye baguette with a pinch of fleur de sel, so the cream and onion get to speak on their own.
Real reviews from The Cheese Store of Beverly Hills Google Business Profile. Curated by Dom and his team since 1967.
Domenico and his team are fantastic. I’m a chef and I often get my supplies from The Cheese Store — unique products, carefully selected, from top Italian and French cheeses to excellent local ones.
Absolutely loved the cheese store! Everyone was super helpful and friendly. Lena helped us — she was very knowledgeable on all the cheeses: where they came from, what the region is like, what they are known for. It was like wine tasting for cheese.
Ordered several cheeses from them and the wrong items were delivered. Contacted the store and they recognized the error and immediately sent the correct order the next day without any fuss. Really appreciate the promptness and professionalism.
“Hand-paddled cultured butter in the 19th-century Breton tradition, built on grass-fed Brittany and Normandy milk and finished in small flavored batches that other producers can't replicate at scale.”
Cultured cream slow-churned in wooden barattes, then hand-kneaded (malaxage) on a wooden table with teak paddles — a 19th-century technique that lets flavorings fold in without breaking the texture.
