Product Details
Location
Our artisanal Manchego comes from the heart of Spain. It is made in La Mancha, a region known for rolling plains and strong cheese traditions. Local farmers raise Manchega sheep on sunlit pastures, where they graze on herbs and wild grasses. This diet gives the milk a rich and distinct taste. Using time-tested methods, cheesemakers craft each wheel by hand. As a result, this cheese reflects the land, the people, and the deep culture of La Mancha. It is a true taste of Spanish heritage.
Tasting
This Manchego is full of flavour and depth. First, you notice its nutty and sweet notes. Then, a mild savoury edge and hints of fresh herbs appear. Its firm, buttery texture melts smoothly on the tongue. A light scent of lanolin adds another layer of interest. Unlike many mass-produced versions, this cheese offers real character. The taste is balanced, rich, and clean. As it ages, the flavour grows stronger, but it stays smooth and easy to enjoy. Every bite leaves a long, pleasant finish.
Pairing
Manchego pairs beautifully with both sweet and savoury foods. Start with cherry jam or quince paste for a classic match. Add charcuterie or marcona almonds for extra texture and depth. On the drinks side, fruity red wines like Tempranillo or Garnacha highlight the cheese’s sweet and savoury notes. You can also try dry sherry or crisp white wine for a different balance. Whether you’re building a cheeseboard or planning a tapas night, this cheese fits right in and always adds something special.
Recipe
Enjoy our Manchego on a cheese board, melted over grilled vegetables, or in a classic Spanish dish like Manchego-stuffed peppers. Its rich and complex flavours add depth to any meal.
