Romero Fino
Sheep’s Milk Cheese
Toledo, Spain
Made from raw sheep’s milk and aged a minimum of 4 months. This cheese has rosemary incorporated into the paste of the cheese, which sets it apart from others that only the have rosemary on the rind, resulting in a flavor that is more subtle and less astringent. The rosemary perfumes the cheese beautifully; it’s creamy in texture, with a slight sweetness and smooth, lingering finish.
WINE & CRAFT BEER PAIRINGS:
Try this cheese with a Grenache from Spain (what grows together, goes together)! For beer, try this with a classic Saison or any farmhouse ale.

Artequeso
Manchego Semi Curado
Sheep’s Milk Cheese
La Mancha, Spain
This exceptional raw milk Manchego is crafted exclusively from sheep’s milk sourced from local herds. Once the milk is collected, Artequeso Manchego cheese is produced following only the strictest of artisan traditions, during which cheesemaker Alfonso Alvarez and his staff keep absolute control over each step of the cheese making process: this includes curd cutting, whey drainage, salting, and finally drying. After production, each wheel is attentively aged, with precise control of temperature and humidity to ensure optimal flavor and texture throughout the affinage process.
