Ibores Goat's Milk Cheese, D.O.

Ibores cheese is one of the most emblematic products from Extremadura: its taste reminds us of a countryside of vast open wilderness, where rockrose, heather, thyme and thickets grow rampant. It is produced from Serrana, Verata or Retinta goat?s milk, all bred according to tradition, and allowed to roam across the arid countryside searching out these aromatic herbs and grasses. This cheese has a semi-hard rind with a waxy yellow or dark ochre color. The cheese itself is semi-hard and with little holes throughout the wheel. It is cured for 80 days lending a firm texture. Its flavor is mild yet complex, with herbal flavors imparted by the goat's varied diet.
