Arzúa-Ulloa DOP Cheese (500g)

The Arzúa-Ulloa DOP Cheese is a true gastronomic treasure from Galicia, popularly known as Queixo do País. Made from pasteurized cow's milk and aged for a minimum of six days, this cheese stands out for its lenticular shape and unmistakable texture.

Its rind is thin and elastic, with a pale yellow tone, while its paste is soft, uniform, and ivory white. On the palate, it offers a mild flavor reminiscent of butter and yogurt, with creamy notes and a pleasantly light acidic touch. The 500g piece is perfect for enjoying on any occasion.
