Description

Manchego is a name-protected cheese which may only be made in Spain's central La Mancha region-and only from the milk of Manchega sheep. This Don Juan Manchego contains raw milk and ages for a minimum of one year. Its extra character is partially due to the milk and maturation, but also to the care the cheesemakers take during the handling. It is truly a small-scale artisan product; it is hand-formed, hand-wrapped, and dry cured for a year under close inspection. Its robust flavor reflects the rugged Spanish countryside-floral, nutty, sweet, and savory all at once.

Don’t be fooled by imposters! Real Manchego cheese is made only with milk from Manchega sheep in the “La Mancha” region of Spain. It must pass inspection and be certified by the Consejo Regulador and receive a certification stamp like the one on Don Juan Manchego Cheese. The hand-pressed cheese is aged for a minimum of two months and has a distinct bouquet and aroma. With its intense flavor a slight piquancy, Manchego should have a place on every cheese plate. It’s also delightful on it’s own or paired with fruits and nuts.
