Manchego Reserve (Extra Aged) - Pound Cut

Spain's Legendary Manchego Cheese: A Taste of La Mancha

Manchego cheese is the most renowned specialty cheese hailing from Spain. Originating in the La Mancha region of central Spain, authentic Manchego is crafted exclusively from the milk of Manchega sheep. This exceptional cheese from igourmet offers a truly authentic taste of Spain.

The igourmet Spanish Manchego Cheese (Extra Aged) is a masterful expression of this iconic Spanish delicacy. Aged for over 12 months, this reserve-style Manchego develops a wonderfully sharp, nutty flavor profile and a firm, brittle texture that sets it apart from its younger counterparts.

The La Mancha region, known for its harsh climate of fierce winds, dramatic temperature swings, and arid, desert-like conditions, is the birthplace of this magnificent cheese. Produced using time-honored traditional methods and adhering to the strictest quality guidelines, igourmet's Manchego Reserve exhibits all the hallmarks of this celebrated Spanish specialty.

We particularly recommend enjoying this Manchego Reserve with a glass of robust Rioja wine and fresh seasonal fruit. The complex, mature flavor of the cheese pairs exceptionally well with the rich, fruity notes of the wine, creating a harmonious taste experience.

Crafted from pasteurized sheep's milk, this Manchego Reserve cheese is carefully hand-cut and packaged to ensure optimal freshness upon delivery. Shipped in an insulated cooling package, this cheese arrives ready to delight your senses.

Manchego Reserve Cheese Serving Suggestions:

• Serve wedges of Manchego with quince paste for a classic Spanish pairing.
• Enjoy Manchego simply with crusty bread, extra virgin olive oil, and a glass of red wine for a delightful desert course.
• Incorporate Manchego into salads dressed with olive oil for a delicious gourmet touch.

Pairing Gourmet Manchego Cheese with Wine:

When selecting a wine to accompany your Manchego Reserve, look for bold, full-bodied red varieties such as Tempranillo or Grenache. Wines from renowned Spanish regions like Rioja, Ribera del Duero, and Sherry make excellent pairings.
