Discover the essence of La Mancha in every bite with this artisan cured sheep cheese covered in honey and rosemary leaves, made by the Los Villajos family following traditional methods and using raw sheep's milk.
Cured for 9 to 12 months and carefully coated with honey and rosemary leaves, this cheese offers an intense, deep flavor full of Mediterranean nuances, where the firmness of the paste contrasts with the fresh and balsamic aroma of rosemary.

Perfect for gourmet boards, pairing with full-bodied red or white wines, or simply enjoying it on its own as an authentic Spanish appetizer.

It is a manchego cheese with rosemary, although by regulation, it has to be called sheep cheese, even though it only uses raw milk from Manchego sheep.
Made in Spain Gourmet invites you to discover the essence of La Mancha with this cheese that is much more than a product; it is a story of passion and dedication, the result of centuries of tradition in the production of artisan cheeses.

Artisan cured sheep cheese with rosemary - The Authentic Flavor of La Mancha

Origin and tradition
Authentic artisan sheep cheese made in Porzuna (Ciudad Real, Castilla-La Mancha) by the family company Villajos, with over 25 years of experience
Milk and maturation
Made with raw milk from Manchego sheep, it guarantees a firm texture and an ivory interior. Its artisanal aging process takes place between 9 and 12 months, reaching its full organoleptic expression
Sensory profileArtisan cured sheep cheese made with raw sheep's milk, covered in honey and rosemary leaves.
Color: Crust covered in natural rosemary leaves, with a rustic and attractive visual presence. Firm paste with a ivory to pale yellow color, uniform and with barely any eyes. It may present slight crystals typical of good maturation.
Aroma: Complex and intense fragrance, predominant aromas of dried rosemary, countryside, and underbrush. Subtle sweet and floral notes provided by the honey, balancing the overall profile. Mature dairy background with hints of toasted nuts.
Taste: Rich, deep, and well-balanced flavor between the intensity of aged cheese and the sweet smoothness of honey. The rosemary adds herbal freshness and balsamic nuances, while the honey rounds out the profile with a sweet and floral touch. Persistent aftertaste, where the flavors of the countryside, mature sheep's milk, and natural sweetness blend together.
Guaranteed quality: 100% Manchego sheep milk.
Authentic and artisanal, without pasteurized milk, preserving the traditional flavor.
