Queso Curado El Gazul Raza Payoya is an artisanal cheese produced by Queseria El Gazul S. L., a company known for crafting high-quality cheeses in Spain. This specific cheese is made from the milk of Payoya goats, a rare breed indigenous to the Sierra de Grazalema region.


The cheese is recognized for its distinct, rich flavor profile which is a result of the traditional curing process it undergoes.
