Azeitão Victor Fernandes Cheese

🧀 Victor Fernandes Azeitão Cheese — 240g

Discover the authentic taste of Azeitão Cheese, a true jewel of Portuguese gastronomy! This artisanal cheese is produced through the slow draining of the curd after coagulation of raw, pure sheep's milk by the action of a thistle infusion, which gives it a truly distinctive flavor that is a blend of acidic, salty, and spicy notes.

With a minimum curing time of 20 days, during which the cheeses are turned daily and washed to keep the rind smooth and clean, a buttery, unctuous, and slightly yellowish cheese is obtained, which slowly loses its shape.

The aroma and flavor are characteristic, clean, and unmistakable — a unique sensory experience that transports you directly to Portuguese rural traditions!
