Description

Made in an artisanal way, this aged cheese is made with raw sheep’s milk from the Churra and Castellana breeds, pure and native breeds of the province, of recognized dairy aptitude, with very remarkable quality levels, under the Protected Designation of Origin Queso Zamorano. With natural rind of brown color and well defined and marked pleita, bathed in Extra Virgin Olive Oil during maturation. The paste is firm and compact, yellowish ivory in color, and may have small eyes, evenly distributed throughout the cut.

Zamorano cheese is characterized by its genuine aromas and flavors, typical of sheep’s milk, well developed and persistent on the palate. In addition, we can appreciate olfactory and gustatory characteristics that remind us of sheep’s milk, cooked butter or nuts, due to the traditional grazing system that feeds our sheep and their long maturation in cellar.
