Manchego Reserve (Extra Aged) - Pound Cut

Manchego Cheese, Spain's Most Famous Cheese

Produced in the La Mancha region of Central Spain, true Manchego cheese is made from 100% sheep's milk. This igourmet Spanish Manchego Cheese (Extra Aged) is Spain's most famous cheese, highly sought after for its distinct flavor and texture.

The igourmet Spanish Manchego Cheese - Reserve (Extra Aged) is a spectacular gourmet Manchego cheese that is aged for over 12 months, giving it a sharper, nuttier flavor and a firmer, more brittle texture than its younger counterpart. This fabulous cheese is produced in Central Spain's La Mancha region, a territory known for its fierce winds, violent temperature swings, and desert-like aridity.

Manchego Reserve cheese is made using traditional methods under strict quality guidelines. We especially love this cheese served with Rioja wine and fresh fruit. Made from pasteurized sheep's milk, this cheese is cut and wrapped by hand, and shipped in an insulated cooling package to ensure freshness.

Serving Suggestions and Recipes:

Manchego Cheese with Quince Jelly: Cut the cheese into wedges and arrange them on a plate. Cut the quince paste into small strips and place them on top of the cheese wedges or beside them.

To maximize enjoyment, serve Manchego Reserve Cheese simply with membrillo (quince paste) and a fine glass of your favorite Spanish wine, with perhaps some fresh fruit and marcona almonds. It's also delicious with salads dressed in virgin olive oil, or as a dessert with a crusty slice of bread and a glass of red wine.

Pairing Gourmet Manchego Cheese With Wine:

Seek out great value Tempranillo or splurge a little on a silky Grenache. Suitable wines include Valdepenas, La Mancha, Rioja, Navarra, Ribera del Duero, and Sherry.
