A Spanish gourmet cheese

The aged cheese with black garlic by Ciudad de Sansueña is a cheese made using select raw sheep's milk and a special selection of black garlic, following a traditional recipe. The milk is thermized and unpasteurized to preserve all its natural and organoleptic properties.

Using natural rennets, we coagulate the milk. The curd is then transferred to the filling machine to be introduced into molds with 5% black garlic. Afterwards, they are placed in the pressing area to extract excess whey. Once the pressing time is over, the cheese is unmolded and placed into brine.

This process results in a natural rind free from artificial products. During 11 months of aging in the chambers, the black garlic will meld with the cheese, imparting its nutrients and aromas. The outcome is a natural, unique, and healthy product, and a pleasure to savor.

 

How to pair this Black Garlic Aged Cheese?

From Zamora, Spain

The company's origins are undoubtedly rooted in a great enthusiasm. Located in Santibáñez de Vidriales, in the Benavente y Los Valles area of the Zamora province, the company was founded in 1995 by Juan Uña Prieto, a veterinarian by profession. He decided to create a small cheese factory to process the milk from his family's flock of sheep.

Juan's passion for sheep and cheese has been present since his birth, as his family has been dedicated to shepherding for several generations.

Soon, the initial factory facilities became insufficient, and the milk from the family flock was not enough to meet the growing demand for cheese. This led the company to undertake a series of expansions over the years, resulting in the current facilities of approximately 7500 square meters with modern machinery. In fact, in 2022, the company received the award for technological innovation from the Zamora Chamber of Commerce. This modern machinery perfectly complements traditional production methods.

Juan has always sought a balance between quality and modernity, consistently supporting innovations and technological advancements that enhance the quality of the product.
