The Afuega´l Pitu rojo cheese is a gem of Asturian gastronomy, recognized with the Protected Designation of Origin (D.O.P.). This rich, aged cheese is reddish-orange and is made from pasteurized whole cow's milk. Its soft paste is enriched with the addition of paprika, which enhances its flavor while adding a slight spiciness. Its aroma evokes notes of cow, mushroom, and a hint of forest. On the palate, it is creamy and dry, with an intense fresh dairy taste, interwoven with hints of toasted hazelnuts and wildflowers. Its balanced flavor ensures the paprika stands out without overshadowing the cheese's own characteristics. It is presented in a whole piece weighing approximately 300 g, perfect for pairing with traditional dishes or to enjoy on a cheese board. Store in a cool, dry place to preserve its freshness and flavor.
