Rosemary 'Manchego' Cheese - 1.1 Pounds
- Reserva sheep's milk cheese
- Coated in fresh rosemary
- Aged 15 months
- Firm with a nutty flavor
- Size - 1.1 lb/500 gr wedge
Aromatic rosemary leaves coat this rich Manchego cheese, complementing its nutty herbal flavor. Made at a small cheesemaker in La Mancha from pasture-raised sheep’s milk.
The raw cheese is coated with fresh local rosemary before 15 months of aging. During the curing time, the cheese picks up a hint of the amazing aroma of the rosemary, adding an extra depth of flavor.
Aging makes the cheese firm and pleasantly sharp with a pleasant nuttiness. Serve with nuts and honey with a glass of your favorite vino.

"I did not realize this cheese is as hard as it is. I'm not a hard cheese fan, so this was not a hit with me. I should have ordered a Tetilla."

"Fabulous, the same as "manchego," but slightly different...the rosemary adds a great aroma and adds slightly to the flavor, but doesn't overpower the "manchego" flavor at all!"
