The mildest of Catalan handmade ewe’s milk cheeses.
HISTORY
At the beginning of the 21st century, some Catalan artisan cheesemakers began to make young cheeses with white mold rind looking for the best soft texture and flavor. An example is Odre, “wineskin” in Catalan, made by one of the oldest artisan cheese makers of Catalonia in two sizes.
TASTING NOTES
Very smooth and creamy, with a soft but firm texture and an ivory white color. It pairs very well all types of wines and Cavas as well as medium to strong beers, smeared or cut on fresh toasted bread.
