The Infernuko Gasna cheese is one of the most outstanding and award-winning Idiazabal cheeses from the Kortaria Dairy, under the direction of Julen Arburua, one of the youngest farmers and a clear example of how shepherding is a viable alternative. It is a great reference for artisan cheese making in Spain.
The dairy is located in the Orabidea neighborhood of Lekaroz, in the Baztan Valley area, in the northernmost part of Navarra. The dairy is a dream and a lifelong project that has lasted and continues to endure for many years. It is a family farm that has always taken special care in raising and caring for the livestock.
