BEHIND THE PRODUCT: Since 1979, Échiré Beurre de Baratte – or "churned butter" has the elite designation of Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée, or AOC. This designation protects the style, ingredients, and origin of a product from being produced in other regions. The AOC seal most certainly speaks of authenticity.
