Manchego isn’t just any cheese; it’s a proud representative of Spain. Picture sun-drenched fields, rolling hills, and sheep grazing contentedly. This cheese can only be produced in specific provinces within the La Mancha region, south of Madrid.
The Manchega breed of sheep provides the milk for this cheese. Their milk must have a minimum fat content of 6 percent.
Semi firm, slightly crumbly texture, with a rich buttery flavour.
