Zamorano
(sah-moh-RAHN-oh)
Country Spain |
Milk Type Sheep |
Cheese Type Firm |
Wine Zinfandel |
|
Zamorano is a hard sheep's milk cheese, generally nuttier and richer than its Spanish cousin, Manchego. The nomadic shepherding families of Castille-Léon have been hand-crafting Zamorano for centuries. Zamorano has a full, deliciously gamey, sheep's milk flavor with a texture that melts in the mouth. We recommend that you try pairing this cheese with lighter crisp white wines and with soft to medium-bodied red wines, as well as with premium coffee. |
