| Editorial Reviews:
Product Description On a recent trip to Spain, we happened upon a small cheese fair in Trujillo. We tasted several fine cheeses, but the discovery of the day was this family-made Manchego cheese from La Mancha.This pasteurized young sheep's milk cheese is creamy and mild. Because it is an artisan product there is no waxy texture like industrial cheeses, just a rich silkiness. The Queso Manchego D.O. seal of authenticity assure you that the cheese is 100% ewe's milk from sheep that graze on La Mancha in central Spain. Traditionally slices or wedges of this celebrated cheese are served as tapas or snacks with olives, accompanied by manzanilla, fino sherry or beer. Sometimes manchego is served as a light dessert accompanied by membrillo, fig wheels, fresh fruit and honey.
