Viejo de Cueva - Aged

 Presentation

 Wheels weighing approximately 3 kg.

 This cheese is produced from raw Manchegan sheep’s milk using wholly artisanal methods. In cheese manufacturing, artisanal production refers to the process of coagulating milk without high-temperature heat treatment.

 The sheep are fed on pasture grasses and herbs from the dry, chalky lands
of Castile-La Mancha where pastures are scarce, which gives the cheese its very unique flavor, finish and characteristic aromas.

 The “Viejo de Cueva” name makes reference to the place where the cheese was traditionally aged: in natural caves (cuevas) that maintained constant temperatures throughout the year. Today, the same conditions are maintained during the ageing process, which is over 8 months from manufacture to the time the cheese is sold.
