Spanish Cheese
Spanish cheese is some of the most characterful in Europe, from firm, nutty Manchego made with sheep's milk to the wine washed drunken goat and the creamy blue of La Peral. If you have been looking for authentic cheese from Spain, our range gathers the classics and a few lesser known gems, all sourced from Spanish producers and delivered fresh across the UK. Explore the selection below.
La Peral Cheese
A creamy, salty blue cheese with a lovely granular texture. While this is a blue, it’s not too acidic despite the strong flavour. It comes from the Asturias region of Northern Spain and named after a local village.
Mahon Cheese
This dense, crumbly cheese comes straight from Menorca. It is a DOP cheese meaning it can only be made there. This cheese is particularly special as it's made in square rounds and is washed in olive oil and paprika, giving it a soft, fruity flavour.
Manchego Curado Cheese 6 Months
The Manchego has a balanced and intense flavour and aroma with a slightly flakey texture; it has an ivory hue and a creamy taste. This particular Manchgeo has been aged for 6 months giving it an incredibly deep and wonderfully rich flavour. A hard, brittle cheese with a surprising moistness. The flavour yields a grassy, tangy after-note.
Murcia al Vino (Drunken Goat)
Murcia al Vino is a goats cheese from the Murcia region of Spain. It's name literally translates to "drunken goat" and this is due to the red-wine bath the cheese receives, giving it a distinct purple rind. Murcia al Vino is a hard yet creamy goats’ cheese that is slightly milder compared to others.
Tetilla
This creamy, smooth cheese comes from the Galicia region of Spain and in Galician, tetilla means "small breast". That's right, this is the breast-shaped cheese! It comes with a bitter, buttery flavour with a slight tang to it.
Torta de Barros Cheese
There is a tradition in Spain of making ewes' milk cheeses using cardoon thistle rennet. This leads to the cheese age from the inside out, making the middle really unctuous and oozy and resulting in a full flavour. We love this cheese - it's entirely delicious!
