Manchego PDO Cheese by Plaza Mayor is made from 100% fresh milk from Manchega sheep grazing in the Spanish region of La Mancha. This cheese has a particularly nutty, full flavor with a semi-hard texture. This traditional Spanish food has matured for six months, giving it a richer, distinctive taste.
Enjoying Manchego cheese is an authentic cultural experience since its history dates back to the Iberian Civilization of the Bronze Age. The sheep milk curd was traditionally pressed into hand-knit baskets and aged between 60 days to 2 years in designated caves by cheesemakers. The result is caramel-like, nutty, and somewhat crumbly Manchego with its distinctive zig-zag pattern on the rind. Manchego was born in the Spanish region of La Mancha, home to Don Quijote.
