Manchego Cheese

Manchego Cheese

Random Weight cut between .48 – .60 lb.

Manchego has a firm and compact consistency and a buttery texture and often contains small, unevenly distributed air pockets. The color of the cheese varies from white to ivory-yellow, and the inedible rind from yellow to brownish-beige. The cheese has a distinctive flavor, well developed but not too strong, creamy with a slight piquancy, and leaves an aftertaste that is characteristic of sheep's milk.
