Hard Spanish Cheese - Raw Sheep Milk by Dehesa Dos Hermanas
$19.99
Unit price perExquisite Hard Raw Sheep's Milk Cheese by Dehesa Dos Hermanas, aged for 9 months. Numerous national and international awards endorse this artisanal product, a pressed hard cheese that is both tasty and creamy, delighting the most demanding gourmets. As proof of the quality of the ingredients used to make this cheese, the rind is entirely edible, as it is made with olive oil.
Another secret to this outstanding cheese is the meticulous care taken in the production process. They select the final lactation milk from the sheep to carry out a traditional process of rennet, cutting, and pressing. Subsequently, the pressed cheese undergoes a brine bath and then moves to the maturation and aging chamber, where it will remain for an extended period.
The cheese is produced in the farmhouse "Dehesa Dos Hermanas", a farm located on a 1,500-hectare estate in Santa Bárbara de Casa (Huelva), the largest farm in Europe that has been active for several decades.
Here, the entire "production cycle" takes place, from planting a seed to producing one of the best sheep cheeses in Andalucia and the world. Moreover, this farm has been the first sheep farm to obtain the animal welfare certificate from AENOR, thanks to the care and technical innovations of Dehesa Dos Hermanas.
Tasting notes
Intense and persistent taste. Compact and creamy texture in the mouth.
Hard Raw Sheep's Cheese?
Like any good cheese, it pairs perfectly with nuts and sweet touches from Spanish honey, membrillo quince paste or gourmet jams. And of course, with a glass of red wine.
