About Tupí Cheese
Tupí is a traditional cheese from the Catalonia region, enjoyed in both Andorra and Spain. Made from a mix of cow's, goat's, and sheep's milk, this pasteurized cheese has a soft, artisan texture. It is known for its spicy flavor that offers a sharp kick to the palate. The cheese is pungent in aroma, which complements its bold taste. With a white color and no rind, Tupí is often enjoyed as a spreadable cheese. Its high fat content of 50% contributes to its creamy consistency. Also known as fromage de Tupi, it is a distinctive part of the local cheese-making tradition.
