Gran Queso is a cheese crafted by Roth Käse, a renowned cheesemaker based in Wisconsin. Inspired by the Spanish Manchego, it is however distinctly original, being made entirely from cow's milk. Aged for a minimum of six months, Gran Queso boasts a firm texture and a rich, sweet profile with hints of nuttiness.


The rind of the cheese is rubbed with a blend of spices, including cinnamon and paprika, which adds an additional layer of flavor, distinguishing it further from its Spanish inspiration. Gran Queso has received accolades in cheese competitions, underscoring its quality and appeal.
