Queso Manchego Artesano PDO

Producer: Quesos de Hualdo Origin: Castilla la Mancha, Spain

This is a traditional Manchego cheese made with raw milk from the many free roaming Manchega sheep on the Hualdo Farm. The wheels are turned and brushed regularly (on wooden boards, which imparts a woody, vegetal flavor) throughout their maturation. The color of the paste deepens as it ages. This cheese has a firm and buttery texture on the palate with notes of nuts and cereal. This Manchego is aged for 7 months.
