{{getOldPrice()}}{{getPrice()}}

This Creamy Torta Sheep Cheese is delicious.

Gourmet creamy cheese made with raw sheep's milk from the Valle de Los Pedroches and vegetable coagulant from the flower Cynara Cardunculus.

Aged for a minimum of 2 months, this cheese stands out for its flavor and strength.

To achieve an even creamier texture, it is recommended to briefly heat it in the oven or microwave.

Formats: 240 grams.

TASTING NOTES

The color of the crust varies between yellow and brown tones, sometimes slightly reddish, with a cream-colored interior.

It is a cheese with a very intense olfactory intensity, with vegetal and animal aromas that intermingle in the mouth.

With a saline and slightly bitter touch.

Very soft, creamy, soluble and melting texture, with high unctuousness.

PAIRING

Pairs perfectly with toasted wheat and rye bread, nuts, honey, jam, and/or caramelized onions. Due to its aromatic power, dry white wines are usually a good accompaniment.
