Caramel, toasted hazelnut and a finish worth chasing.
This is the cheese to bring out when ordinary will not do. Pair generous pieces with fig bread, truffle honey and roasted hazelnuts, or let delicate shavings transform warm tapas and grilled vegetables. Buttery at first, then intense and lingering, it creates the kind of tasting customers continue talking about.
Its aroma is clean and elegant, with developed milky notes, caramel and the rustic character of raw sheep’s milk. The first taste is surprisingly smooth and buttery before its intensity begins to unfold.
A floury, slightly granular texture carries layers of toasted hazelnut, caramel and savoury depth. A pleasant spicy note emerges at the end and remains beautifully persistent, inviting the next taste long after the first has disappeared.
Serve it with fig bread, truffle honey, roasted nuts or quince. Shave it over grilled artichokes, mushrooms and warm potato dishes, or make it the boldest cheese on a tasting board. Its complexity gives delicatessens and restaurants countless ways to create a memorable Spanish moment.
