About Zelu Koloria Cheese

Zelu Koloria is a semi-hard, blue-veined cheese from the Basque region of Aquitaine, France. Made from pasteurized sheep's milk, it features a natural rind and a creamy color. The cheese offers a rich and strong aroma, reflecting its bold flavor profile. Its taste is a blend of buttery, lemony, and spicy notes, with a strong and tangy finish. The texture is firm yet slightly open, allowing the blue veining to add an additional layer of flavor. Perfect for those who enjoy a cheese with a pronounced character, Zelu Koloria pairs well with crusty bread and robust red wines.
