Pasteurized sheep´s milk, naturally aged minimum 120 days, with chili infused into the cheese and applied on the rind.
This unparalleled raw milk Manchego is exclusively produced using sheep`s milk collected from local herds. Once the milk is collected, Artequeso Manchego cheese is produced following only the strictest of artisan traditions, during which cheesemaker Alfonso Alvarez and his staff keep absolute control over each step of the cheese making process: this includes curd cutting, whey drainage, salting, and finally drying. Once the make process is complete, each wheel is carefully tended to during the affinage process, with particular attention devoted to controlled temperature and humidity levels.
Pressed paste cheese made from pasteurized pure goat milk. Immersed in red wine for 48-72 hours. Curing time: about 1 month.
Campo de Montalban is a mixed-milk cheese, containing roughly sixty percent cow`s milk with the remainder comprised of goat`s and sheep`s milks. It was originally considered a Manchego, but in 1985 the AOC standards for Manchego were changed to mandate 100 percent sheep’s milk. As Campo de Montalban is mixed-milk, its name was changed to reflect its home region. Made in the town of La Puebla de Montalban, its name translates to `the fields of Montalban.
