    Manchego, Mahon Reserva, Idiazabal and Murcia al Vino

    Each cheese is an 8 ounce package

    Imported from Spain

    Please note that any item temporarily out of stock will be substituted with a similar item of equal value

    You sense it immediately - the heady aromas, the intensely fulfilling textures, and the vibrant flavors of Spain's artisan cheese tradition. Different milks, a diverse terrain, and unique cheesemaking techniques all play a role in the subtle differences in each cheese's color, texture, and flavor. We have selected four of our favorites for this sampler:

    • Manchego Reserva - Spain's most famous cheese, made entirely from pure La Mancha sheep's milk. Manchego is prized for its rich, complex flavor and its satisfyingly grainy texture. The reserve version is aged for one year.
    • Mahon - This firm cow's milk cheese comes from the Balearic Island of Menorca in the Mediterranean. This version has been aged for three months, developing a rich tanginess and fragrant aroma.
    • Idiazabal - Smooth, rich and satisfyingly sharp, Idiazabal is a smoked sheep's milk cheese that gives off a warming rustic scent. It is the quintessential cheese of the Basque country in Northern Spain.
    • Murcia al Vino - This 100% goat's milk cheese from Murcia is bathed in red Spanish wine, making this product a wine-and-cheese party all by itself!
    This assortment includes four 1/2 pound cuts of cheese.

    Greek Cheese Assortment (1.5 pound) by igourmet.com

    Sales rank: 2082

    Assortment of three Greek cheeses

    Manouri, Graviera and Kefalotyri

    Each cheese is an 8 ounce package

    Imported from Greece

    Please note that any item temporarily out of stock will be substituted with a similar item of equal value

    Imagine yourself sitting at a table outside a white-washed taverna with family and friends as you watch the sun setting over the Aegean Sea. You enjoy Manouri with fig spread, Feta drizzled with Extra Virgin olive oil, and Kefalotyri served with rich Greek olives and beans. The essence of good Greek cuisine is its simplicity. That is why igourmet's Greek cheeses are all made by artisans. The sheep and goats that yield the milk are from free-ranging herds, foraging from over two dozen grasses and wild herbs. You can really taste the difference! This collection of cheeses includes:

    • Manouri: This is essentially a sheep's milk "cream cheese", made by adding sheep's milk cream to the whey from the feta production. Try some with Glazed Figs. It's fantastic!
    • Authentic Barrel-Aged Feta: A perfect blend of sheep and goat's milk produces this rich, incomparable Feta.
    • Kefalotyri: This traditional unpasteurized sheep's milk cheese has been produced in various regions of Greece since Byzantine times. A hard cheese, Kefalotyri is the first cheese to be produced at the start of each new milking season, ensuring that its milk was taken just after the lambs were weaned.
    This assortment contains three 1/2 pound cheeses.

    Myzithra - Pound Cut (1 pound) by igourmet.com

    Sales rank: 975

    Imported from Greece

    Difficult to find

    Dry enough to grate

    Use Like Ricotta Salata

    Bold, assertive flavor

    Because of Greece's less-than-fertile terrain, most of its cheeses are made from sheep's milk. Feta is, of course, the best-known Greek cheese, but fresh sheep's milk cheeses are common, as well. One of the most common of these ricotta-style cheeses is Myzithra. It has a much more interesting flavor and texture than most of the ricotta available in this country. The flavor is rather nutty, and the texture is cottony and drier than ricotta. This cheese works wonderfully in cooking, especially blended into pasta dishes. Our version of Myzithra is actually the pressed and dried version. It is similar to an Italian ricotta salata and is a popular grating cheese in Greece. The cheese is quite crumbly and salty, so a little bit can add a lot of flavor to your dishes.

    This special Manchego is aged for over 12 months, giving it a sharper, nuttier flavor and a firmer, more brittle texture than its younger namesake.

    'Villajos' Young Manchego Cheese by LaTienda.com

    Sales rank: 3046

    Imported from Spain

    Cured 3 months; quite creamy and not overly sharp

    Traditionally served as tapas or snacks with olives accompanied by sherry or beer

    Also served as a light dessert accompanied by membrillo, fig wheels, fresh fruit and honey

    Perishable; requires expedited shipping

    On a recent trip to Spain, we happened upon a small cheese fair in Trujillo. We tasted several fine cheeses, but the discovery of the day was this family-made Manchego cheese from La Mancha.This pasteurized young sheep's milk cheese is creamy and mild. Because it is an artisan product there is no waxy texture like industrial cheeses, just a rich silkiness. The Queso Manchego D.O. seal of authenticity assure you that the cheese is 100% ewe's milk from sheep that graze on La Mancha in central Spain. Traditionally slices or wedges of this celebrated cheese are served as tapas or snacks with olives, accompanied by manzanilla, fino sherry or beer. Sometimes manchego is served as a light dessert accompanied by membrillo, fig wheels, fresh fruit and honey.
    Roquefort Societe Bee (8 ounce) by igourmet.com

    Sales rank: 1583

    With Roquefort's fine, milky-white body veined with emerald green, and its well-balanced flavor, this cheese has been appreciated for generations. The secret of Roquefort's manufacture lies in the cellars built in the 17th century. Thanks to the fleurines that allow the air to circulate in the cellars, Société's master cheese-makers are able to maintain the relative humidity near to saturation point. These are the ideal conditions for the development of the subtle and unequalled flavor of Roquefort Société.

    In accordance with the AOC Roquefort regulations, the production of Roquefort requires whole, raw sheep's milk. In order to be used in Roquefort production, this milk must come from within the Roquefort region, and from the ewe's of the Lacaune breed. Roquefort Société is delicious on a baguette, salad, or melted on a steak. Enjoy with your favorite bottle of Sauternes for a delicious ending to any memorable meal.
    • Made from unpasteurized sheep's milk.
