I bought 3 different cheeses. Well, 2 were fine, but one of them arrived fermented and with a rotten smell. I don't know if it came like that from the store or if the cold chain was not maintained during transport. Also, I sent an email explaining what happened a week ago and they haven't replied to me at all. Terrible after-sales service, considering it's not my fault to receive the cheese in bad condition.

Response from Maison Agour
Sir,

We thank you for your comment and sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by receiving your package.

Our cheeses are artisanal and delicate products and, despite all the precautions we take, they can unfortunately suffer some damage during long-distance transport, especially from Spain.

After receiving your message, our after-sales service immediately took care of your request. The damaged products have been resent as soon as we received your return to ensure your full satisfaction.

We appreciate your trust and remain at your disposal for any further inquiries.

Sincerely,

Maison Agour Etxea

Hello, I bought 3 pieces of cheese. Cow and sheep milk cheese, lacking body in aging. Disappointed, it's for children or beginners. Ossau Iraty AOP - Raw Milk. Generally disappointed, raw milk cheeses have more character. Ossau-Iraty AOP ⬆️ (Aging: Long aging) finally a cheese, with a bit more character and length in the mouth, next time I will try the old reserve. For me, a crucial indication is missing, which is the aging duration (the range between 4 and 17 months is far too broad) and the quality-price ratio is not there for the first two. Here is my subjective opinion, I admit it, but you asked me for it.
Translated reviews
Response from Maison Agour
Mr. Brillard,
Thank you for your detailed and constructive feedback on our cheeses.
Aging is the maturation period during which the cheese develops its aromas, texture, and personality. At Agour, this artisanal step takes place in our wooden aging rooms, between 4 and 18 months, depending on the desired character: the majority of our cheeses are aged for 6 months, some for 12 months, and the most typical up to 18 months, for more intense and complex flavors.
We understand your expectations regarding the precision of these durations and are working to make them more visible to best accompany each tasting.
For any questions or additional requests, our after-sales service is at your disposal at: [email protected]
Thank you again for your trust and your passion for good cheeses!
Best regards,
Maison Agour Etxea

Basque cakes were present on your site, and I was disappointed to learn that you had removed their availability after my order.
Translated reviews
Response from Maison Agour
Mr. Milox,
Thank you for your message and for your interest in our Basque cakes.
Indeed, our production is entirely artisanal and local, which allows us to guarantee the best quality and the authentic taste of our products.
However, this sometimes implies limited stock availability.
The out-of-stock situation you noticed is temporary.
We are currently conducting the last tastings before relaunching this reference, and we hope to have it back online before the end-of-year holidays.
Thank you for your understanding and loyalty.
Best regards,

I called and sent an email to Agour to report that the cheeses arrived in a pitiful state and therefore inedible. No response to date which is still a lack of respect. Honestly very disappointed because my previous purchases went smoothly without any problems. I am now hesitant to reorder even though I am of Basque Spanish origin, had a wife, and have a Basque son. Too bad....

Mr. Casez,

Thank you for your feedback.

We would like to clarify that this is in no way a lack of respect on our part. Simply, we had not been informed of your approach to our headquarters.

Thus, in order to effectively handle any complaint, we invite you to contact our customer service directly at the following address: [email protected]

For our quality service to analyze your request under the best conditions, could you please send us visuals of your order upon receipt, as well as your impressions after tasting.

These elements will allow us to determine whether it is a problem related to transport, preservation, or the natural aging of the cheese. As you know, cheese is a living product: its taste qualities can vary.

Rest assured that, in the case of a proven dissatisfaction or a quality problem, we have compensation solutions available, in the form of credit or reshipment of one of our specialties.

We hope that this information will be useful to you and remain at your disposal to find the most suitable solution.

Awaiting your response,

Best regards,

The Maison Agour Etxea team

It didn't come in Seur Frío. Everything arrived thawed and the cheeses smelled strange. The transport company told me that anything coming beyond the Pyrenees is not treated as cold. Talk to them.

Mr. Santos,

We appreciate your trust.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused when receiving your order.

Your package was delivered within the expected timeframe for Spain through our provider DPD.

As indicated in our delivery conditions at the time of validating your order, your order was shipped with a portable cooler; however, the transport through DPD does not have a temperature-controlled transport service.

Additionally, delivery times to European countries are longer and temperature variations are significant during this summer period.

Although it is rare, sometimes our products are affected by these conditions.

That is why we clearly indicate that these shipments are not refrigerated.

As a precaution, we recommend customers choose a delivery period outside of high summer temperatures.

In case of a claim for a damaged or non-compliant product, we invite you to provide us with images of your order at the time of receipt and to contact our after-sales service directly at the address: [email protected]

After opening a claim file and receiving a response from our quality service, we will offer you the appropriate compensation.

We apologize for the inconvenience caused.

Sincerely,

Maison Agour Etxea

I ordered 3 cheeses: 2 sheep and 1 cow - It was hot when I picked up my package which was well preserved at the relay. When I opened it, the vacuum packaging was not airtight (failed pressure) and the cheeses were oozing a lot... The Ossau-Iraty, which is a hard cheese, was completely soft. I put everything in the fridge as soon as I got home, but I admit that the cow's milk cheese had a lot of trouble regaining consistency.

Mrs. Galiana,

Was the tasting still in line with your expectations?
We will immediately alert our preparation service regarding the importance of the quality of the vacuum packaging, in order to prevent this type of incident from happening again.

Translated reviews
Response from Maison Agour
Thank you for your feedback.
Regarding the swollen bags, don't worry: it's completely normal. It's related to our packaging method for the sausages, which leaves a small volume of air to avoid crushing the product and to preserve its quality. We sincerely apologize for the close expiration dates.
As a gesture of goodwill, we offer you a €5 voucher valid on your next order.

Best regards,
The Agour team.

Some products (Tomme 3 milks for example) are incorrectly listed as in stock on the site. No commercial gesture following this error.
Translated reviews
Response from Maison Agour
Indeed, we encountered a problem with the Tommette 3 milks and did not anticipate the stock outage in time. Since then, we have corrected this error and the product is now indicated as unavailable on the site. As a commercial gesture, we replaced the Tommette 3 milks with another quality cheese, which is actually more expensive for us. This substitution was mentioned on the card attached to your order, as is our practice. We hope this replacement still brought you satisfaction and remain available for any questions or requests.

Terrible foie gras and cheese that does not keep.
Translated reviews
Response from Maison Agour
Thank you for your feedback. Can you please specify what you did not like about the foie gras? This will allow us to pass on your comments to our supplier. As for the raw milk tommette, it is a cheese that keeps well. The rind can continue to develop naturally, which is normal for this type of product; just lightly rub it with a cloth or remove the surface bloom. This does not alter its quality at all; on the contrary, its aromas continue to develop. We remain at your disposal if you need storage advice.

The cheeses smell very bad. Following the instructions given, we left them outside for several days but they still smell bad. As compensation, we are offered a refund for the price of one cheese. We believe that we should be sent 4 new cheeses and return these. We hope that our petition will be taken into account.

Response from Maison Agour
We are sorry for this situation. Although the cheeses have a strong odor, this does not mean they are not consumable. It is a natural phenomenon related to humidity, and simply removing the rind will restore a perfectly good cheese. However, we understand your disappointment, and we have issued a refund for one of the affected cheeses (25% refund) to compensate for this inconvenience. We will not send new products, but please know that the quality of our cheeses is assured and they can be consumed without any problem after removing the rind.
