Product Information

A hard cheese made with Manchega raw sheep's milk cured for a minimum of 5 months. Made on the Sierra La Solana estate, 150km south of Madrid. Here you can find traditional, rustic Mediterranean vegetation, as well as a harsh and extreme climatic environment, ideal for the native Manchega sheep to roam about. The result is a clean, rich-tasting milk with a sweet and malted cereal finish, which translates into elegant, fruity, intense flavours with a long finish.

Preparation and Usage

To fully appreciate the flavour of this cheese serve at room temperature with a full bodied red wine, a glass of Fino sherry or Cava. In pairings, Manchego traditionally combines well with fresh grapes, the sweetness of membrillo, or a fig wheel, but it's worth experimenting with savoury pairings such as piquillo peppers or marianted anchovies.
