Tasting Diagram

Sensory Qualities

Appearance

Cerrato Semi-Cured has a firm and compact interior, with light yellow tones resulting from the delicate blend of milks (cow’s and sheep’s milk) native to the Cerrato region, obtaining a unique nuance. When this cheese is cut, it has evenly distributed eyes of varying sizes.

Taste

The flavour of this cheese is very balanced, with notable sweet nuances, hints of dairy and an animal aroma, typical of the maturation of the blend of milks, but stronger due to its ripening time.

Smell

Its aromas are a mixture of dairy-animal sensations and brief hints of cellar, due to its maturation.

Touch

It is a product with an unctuous texture, with slightly rough nuances due to its ripening, silky on the palate and with a certain elasticity. It is flexible when cut, where the original size of the curd grain can be appreciated.

Recommendations

Serving Suggestions

Consume at an optimal temperature of 16ºC, open at least 20 minutes before consumption and leaving it at room temperature to enjoy all its aroma and flavour.
