Super Gold in World Cheese Award, made by Begona in Queseria Valdecabras, using goat milk from local shepherds in Tietar valley, next to Gredos mountains, a unique grazing for livestock.
Creamy and melting on the mouth, it has a fruity taste, with a mild acidity, notes of sweet cream and very gentle goat aromas. The aftertaste reminds us of raw hazelnut. Its rind has a fresh smell: mushroom and vegetables that intensifies the flavour of the cheese.
It is a lactic acid cheese with a long coagulation. It has a soft paste, its format is similar to an ingot and its weight is about 350g. Its rind is smooth and thin, with a velvety blue-green colour, the result of the action of the roqueforti mold and the vegetable coal that covers it.
When cut, it has a pearly white colour without eyes and a very fine rim when young; as it matures, the part near the rind becomes softer and ivory coloured and the flavour becomes more intense.
