Olavidia Cheese, from the Quesos y Besos dairy, chosen as the "Best Cheese in the World" 2021 at the World Cheese Awards held in Asturias and "Best Cheese in Spain 2022" at the 12th GourmetQuesos held at the Salón del Gourmet.

Olavidia is a spectacular cheese artisanally made with pasteurized goat's milk, with several awards under its belt, with a soft ivory-white paste and a slightly citrusy flavor. A fine layer of vegetable charcoal in the center, obtained from olive bone ash, makes it a particularly appetizing cheese.

It has a slightly lemony and strong yogurt aroma.

The rind of Olavidia is edible, naturally moldy. Olavidia cheese is a soft artisan goat cheese perfect for "opening the palate" before other stronger cheeses.

The young family dairy Quesos y Besos is committed to continuing the family tradition of producing lactic coagulation cheeses, being one of the few in the Sierra Morena area. The richness in the diet of their goats seems to be the secret to receiving the first prize for Olavidia cheese only 5 months after its foundation.

How to eat Olavidia?
It is important to eat Olavidia at room temperature to better taste its richness of flavors... so it is advisable to take it out of the refrigerator an hour before. It is also delicious melted on toasted bread or crumbled over salads and vegetables, or simply accompanied by fresh fruit (apples and pears).
