A North Cork butter brand is blending the old with the new to create a delicious product using traditional methods and generations of local farmers.
A farmer-owned independent cooperative, North Cork Creameries was established in Kanturk in 1928 and has been making butter for almost 100 years. Their Ór-Real Irish Butter is made using the traditional method of slow churning, with the only addition being a touch of salt.
