This is a very distinctive Basque cheese which has made a big name for itself. It\u2019s made from unpasteurised milk from the Latxa sheep, long cured for 4 months and then lightly smoked.<\/p>\n
As you\u2019d expected from a mature cheese, the texture is firm. The taste is powerful and unique. The base is a well developed sheep\u2019s cheese, similar to Manchego, but with raw milk for maximum flavour. However, it\u2019s also smoked for a further taste element. To produce one kilo of this Idiazabal cheese seven litres of milk are needed.<\/p>\n
La Vasco Navarra carries the Idiazabal D.O.sticker of guarantee and mark of quality. It has also won multiple awards such as a bronze medal at the world cheese awards 2024.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
