Gamoneu

Gamoneu is a full-fat, ripened cheese made from raw cow's, goat's or sheep's milk in the area of the municipalities of Cangas de Onís and Onís in the Autonomous Community of Asturias. This cheese is lightly smoked and has streaks of green mold on the edges.


Gamoneu is a semi-hard cheese, white to light yellow-colored and mild in flavor. It has a slightly smoky taste with clean and sharp notes and buttery and nutty aromas. After shaping, Gamoneu must be smoked between ten and twenty days, and matured for at least 60 days.
