One of the most acclaimed and delicious modern Spanish cheeses!
Monte Enebro has a considerable international reputation and is sold worldwide. The Baeze family produce Monte Enebro using penicillium roqueforti (the same mould used to make Roquefort), but unusually it is on the outside of the cheese.
When young, the interior paste of the cheese is snowy white white and slightly chalky in texture. With age, the paste tends to break down and becomes runny and almost translucent, especially under the skin. The texture is smooth with an intense lingering flavour, hints of mushroom and herbs.

Due to the relatively small scale of our cheese and condiment producers, occasionally some cheeses and condiments may be unavailable and we will have to substitute them with similar products. Please state in the notes on the Cart page, if you do not wish to have any substitutions.

SHIPPING INFORMATION
Our checkout system allows you to pick a date in the future to receive your delivery.

During December and other peak periods, we may require additional days to process and deliver your order.
PACKAGING
We take great care in packaging and delivering your order.
- Cheeses are wrapped in specialist cheese paper that will allow them to breathe and not suffocate.
- Cheeses and condiments are then packaged in a cardboard box (reusable and recyclable) with an insulated foil pouch and ice packs to ensure the correct temperature is maintained for up to 48 hours (longer during the cold months).
