Nuestra Señora de Fuentes Manchego Cheese – 12 Months Cured (Approx. 250 g)

Product Description
Nuestra Señora de Fuentes Manchego Cheese, cured for twelve months, is a distinguished Spanish cheese made from 100% Manchega sheep’s milk. Its long maturation results in an intense, complex flavor and a firm, crumbly texture that embodies the essence of authentic aged Manchego.

Over a year of careful curing, this cheese develops a bold nutty taste with layers of sweetness and a sharp tang that lingers on the palate. Its golden paste takes on a dense, crystalline structure, while the natural rind grows firm and thick, a hallmark of artisanal aging. Each bite reflects the rich heritage of Manchego cheese-making in the heart of La Mancha.
