Peñamellera

Peñamellera is a Spanish cheese hailing from the region of Asturias. It's made from cow's milk, but goat's or sheep's milk is added only during spring and summer for extra flavor. Underneath its natural rind, the texture of the body is dense, creamy, and supple, with small irregular eyes.

The aroma is strong and the flavor is acidic and herbaceous with bitter overtones. The cheese ages for a minimum of 15 days before consumption. It's recommended to pair it with white wines and local cider.
