Cheese with PDO
The authentic Menorca DOP cheese, made in a farm (“lloc” in Catalan) with raw cow's milk and matured in a shared ripening chamber.
HISTORY

The Mahón-Menorca is one of the oldest and most historical cheeses of Spain’s  gastronomic heritage. There are still dozens of farms that make it by hand. Meloussa is the grouped brand of a cooperative of producers who mature this cheese together.

 
TASTING NOTES

It has a very characteristic flavor, with almost citrusy acidic backgrounds and iodized and salty notes with the peculiar aroma of its oily and paprika crust. Perfect with rosé and white wines.
