Long before Kerrygold was ever heard of - in fact, as far back as written records go - dairying has played a starring role in Ireland. In the old days, Irishmen kept cattle for milk more than for meat, and status was derived from the bounty of your herd. How did cows become the cornerstone of Irish wealth? Simple. Ireland was made for milk. It has everything you need to make a cow happy: good soil, a mild climate, moisture-bearing southwesterly winds and all the green grass you can chew. It didn't take long for the ancients to figure out that happy cows produce amazing milk, which can then be churned into unbeatable butter. As early as the 17th century, Ireland was sharing its butter with the world. Irish boats were being met at the dock by salivating Swedes, Danes, Portuguese, Frenchmen, Spaniards and American colonists - just as Kerrygold butter is today. Varieties sold separately.

Summary: Well worth the $
Comment: Butter doesn't get better than this. It's easily spreadable, straight out of the refrigerator, without being mushy like margarine. It's lightly salted, so it can be eaten with flavorful breads without competing on flavor, or on plainer breads and still has enough salt to make a difference. I've bought this in Europe, and locally at a Safeway/Genuardi's market, and given how weak the dollar is, even this online price isn't bad (though I've paid 2.99 locally when it's on sale).
You'll never look at butter the same way again after trying this.

Summary: great butter
Comment: This is NOT cooking butter. This is EATING butter. Too good for use in cooking, though you could do that, I just want to taste it directly on toast, biscuits, etc. Regular butter is okay to use in cooking, but this is the Cadillac of dairy products. You haven't lived until you've tried real butter without the processing other butters go through. Enough said, enjoy!

Summary: Probably as good as commercial butter gets
Comment: I just bought this on a lark (not from Amazon), and I was pleasantly surprised: it has a very mild, smooth, creamy taste. At first, I thought that butter was butter, but I did a direct comparison (tasting small slivers of each back-to-back) with the Costco Kirkland Signature butter I had in the fridge, and I have to say the Kerrygold is superior and a lot closer to the fresh, smooth taste I remember spreading on fresh breads at European continental breakfasts.
As a side note, the salted butter really isn't very salty (much less so than the other butter), which (to me) is a good thing, as I'm not much for salty flavors.
