About Spanish-Style Hard Cheese
Spanish-Style Hard cheese is a firm, aged cheese known for its rich and nutty flavor profile. It typically has a pale yellow to golden color, with a texture that ranges from smooth to slightly granular depending on its aging process. The cheese offers a savory taste with hints of buttery sweetness and a mild tang. Often made from cow's, goat's, or sheep's milk, its flavor can vary slightly based on the milk source. It's a popular choice for grating over dishes or serving on a cheese board, pairing well with red wines and cured meats. As it ages, the cheese develops a deeper, more intense flavor, making it a favorite for those who enjoy bold tastes.
