Response from Maison Agour
Dear Madame Gruel,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, and we regret that your experience did not meet your expectations.

We would like to reassure you regarding the delivery of our fresh products during the summer period. We offer refrigerated delivery via Chronofresh. When this option is not selected, we add ice packs to the parcels shipped by DPD to help maintain a moderate temperature during transport, especially during the first 24 to 48 hours depending on external conditions.

We are also attentive to the impact of our packaging. We use the necessary amount to protect the products and preserve their quality during transport. Except for the ice packs, the elements of our packaging are recyclable.

We understand that the appreciation of taste and value for money is subjective.

If you have noticed a problem with preservation or quality upon receiving your order, we invite you to contact our customer service at [email protected] so that we can specifically address your situation.

Best regards,

Maison Agour Etxea

I was supposedly supposed to have black sloe jam in my package but nothing at all in the package. The code CPRUN20 was indeed on the delivery note.
Translated reviews
Response from Maison Agour
Mr. Lagorce,

We are delighted that you chose the products of Maison Agour Etxea for your order and regret that this experience was marred by the absence of your jam.

The black sloe jam from the Basque Country of 28 g is indeed offered for any order including a kilo of the same variety of cheese, as part of the concerned offer. If these conditions were met, it may unfortunately be an unintentional oversight during the preparation of your package.

We invite you to contact our after-sales service at the address [email protected] so that our team can verify your order and provide you with a solution as soon as possible.

We apologize for this small oversight, and we hope that the flavors of the Basque Country present in your package have still managed to delight you.

The products are still just as good but no cheese paper or cooler as expected in the package
Translated reviews
Response from Maison Agour
Sir,

We thank you for your loyalty and are delighted that the quality of our products continues to satisfy you.

Isothermal packaging is used for shipments handled by Chronofresh. This service ensures compliance with the cold chain thanks to transport in a refrigerated vehicle, without interruption until delivery.

For shipments made by DPD in a non-refrigerated vehicle, we add three ice packs to maintain an appropriate temperature during transport, for a maximum duration of 48 hours. In the case of a drop-off at a Pickup point, we cannot guarantee the maintenance of this temperature until the package is picked up by the recipient.

That is why, for the most sensitive products, we recommend prioritizing delivery by Chronofresh.

Cheese paper is not provided when the cheese is vacuum packed. For any questions regarding your order, we invite you to contact our customer service at the address [email protected], attaching photos of the products and the package. Our team will be able to study your request with precision.

Best regards,

Maison Agour Etxea

The products are very good but the delivery took too long, the cheeses had sweated a lot... too bad. Maybe consider shipping from Monday to Wednesday so that the cheeses don't spend their weekend in a warehouse that is too hot for them in the summer.

Mrs. Prugnard,

We are delighted that you appreciated the quality of our products, while regretting that the delivery did not meet your expectations.

Your comment regarding summer shipping is indeed relevant. High temperatures can indeed have an impact on transport conditions, despite the care taken in preparing our packages. Your suggestion regarding shipping days will be passed on to our teams and will inform our reflection to further improve our service.

For any issues related to your delivery, we invite you to contact our after-sales service at the address: [email protected]

We hope to have the pleasure of providing you with a fully satisfactory experience on your next order.

Hello, I am not satisfied at all, not with you but with your service provider. Indeed, the company DPD France has postponed the delivery four times and the Basque cakes arrived on July 11 while the expiration date was on the sixth... I sincerely hope that you will change service providers? Best regards

As agreed, we are proceeding today with a new reshipment of your order.

We once again apologize for this inconvenience beyond our control and thank you for your understanding.

The products suffered from the heat because the delivery took too long. You should only offer express delivery.
Translated reviews
Response from Maison Agour
Mr. Demond,

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are sincerely sorry that your products suffered from the heat during delivery.

To meet our customers' expectations, we offer several shipping methods. Only Chronofresh delivery guarantees transport in refrigerated vehicles, ensuring the cold chain is maintained until delivery.

For shipments via DPD, we protect our products with coolers and insulated packaging to limit the effects of heat. However, the transport trucks are not refrigerated. That is why, especially during the summer period, we strongly recommend prioritizing Chronofresh, despite its additional cost, to ensure receipt under the best conditions.

Your comment is important and reminds us of the relevance of this delivery method for heat-sensitive products.

We look forward to fully satisfying you on your next order.

Shipments made on a Thursday. Transport on the weekend and delivery scheduled for Monday. However, during a heatwave, the transport delays the delivery by a day. Result: hot and melted cheeses, grease everywhere in the bags, the ham the same. If you are going to take the blame, you should never make deliveries on Thursdays and Fridays and especially reconsider your carrier (DPD): unreliable. I have nothing to say about the products, they are of quality. But never order on Thursday or Friday again.

The cheese has a less pronounced sheep taste than I thought (although it is very good). I must say I am left wanting more, as I love cheeses like Beaufort d'alpage and Etivaz which is only from alpine pastures where the flora in its milk is more perceptible.
Translated reviews
Response from Maison Agour
Mr. Baralo,

Thank you for your feedback regarding our Ossau-Iraty AOP .

We understand that the sheep taste seemed less pronounced than you expected, despite your positive appreciation of the product.

The aromatic profile of our cheeses can indeed vary depending on the aging and characteristics of the milk, with more or less marked expressions. The alpine cheeses you mention offer different typicities, linked in particular to their environment and the richness of the flora.

We hope to have the pleasure of providing you with complete satisfaction during your next tasting.

I ordered 500g of medium-aged cheese. I received a piece of cheese, not aged, but beyond the consumption limit! Way too salty, with a thick rind, whose black color penetrated the cheese by almost a centimeter, with a nauseating smell that communicated to half of the cheese. After removing what was UNEDIBLE! I was left with about 250g that I could use as grated cheese to salt the pasta!!! This is disgraceful and contemptuous for the clientele. And very dishonest. Offloading unsellable goods in the store is simply theft! Here is my opinion
Translated reviews
Response from Maison Agour
Mrs. Aveque,

We are sincerely sorry to learn about your experience and understand your dissatisfaction.

We would like to clarify that all our cheeses are checked twice before shipping. Pieces showing a defect or inappropriate aging are systematically excluded from our shipments.

For online sales, we prioritize a rigorous selection of cheeses whose quality and condition are suitable for transport. Cheese being a living material, its evolution can vary, and in-store, it is indeed easier to explain its characteristics and aging to the customer.

If you believe you have received a product with an anomaly, we invite you to contact our customer service at the following address: [email protected]

In case of breakage, damage upon receipt, or quality issues, our team examines each situation carefully and offers appropriate compensation after analysis (photos required).

We also advise our customers to choose a carrier that allows for temperature-controlled shipping for our cheeses, such as Chronofresh.

We remain at your disposal to understand the situation precisely and provide an appropriate response.

Hello, a bit expensive...
Translated reviews
Response from Maison Agour
Mr. Chaillou,

Thank you for sharing your opinion.

Our Ossau-Iraty AOP – Grand Affinage (1 kg) is a Protected Designation of Origin cheese, produced according to strict specifications, guaranteeing its origin, manufacturing method, and the quality of the milk used.

It comes from sheep primarily fed on grass and hay, respecting the traditional practices of the Basque Country and Béarn. Its long aging, carried out with care, requires time, expertise, and controlled conditions to develop all its aromatic richness and texture.

The price thus reflects the quality of the raw materials, compliance with AOP standards, the aging work, and the commitment of our producers.

We hope you still appreciated its flavors and remain at your disposal to advise you on a format or aging that better meets your expectations.
