Benasque is a Spanish cheese hailing from Huesca in Aragón. This hard cheese is made from cow's milk and it's aged from 3 to 6 months in cellars. Underneath its washed rind, the texture is compact and buttery, yet crumbly, melting in the mouth.
The flavors are milky and salty, with a tangy finish, while the aromas are reminiscent of wine cellars. It's recommended to serve Benasque with crusty bread and pair it with a glass of the local Somontano wine.
