Beurre d'Ardenne is a type of cow's milk Butter made in the Ardennes of Belgium.
As a traditional product of the area it received Belgian appellation d'origine by Royal decree in 1984,[1] and received European PDO status in 1996.[2]
Production
The areas where it is produced are within Wallonia and include the provinces of Luxembourg, Namur and Liège.[3]
To qualify, production must take place entirely in those areas, from milking of the cows, through to churning and, final maturation of the butter,[4] and may be made by churning milk, cream or a mixture of both. The final product must be of at least 82% butterfat and butyric acid.
