Extxegarai Idiazabal, sheep's milk, Spain - 0.5lb

A traditional Basque smoked sheep’s milk cheese aged for 6 months, Etxegarai is crafted from raw milk—often from Latxa and Assaf breeds—and smoked over hawthorn and cherry woods. This process imparts a rustic, smoky aroma and a firm, buttery texture. The flavor is bold and savory, with a pronounced sheepy character and subtle fruity notes, making it a distinctive alternative to D.O.P. Idiazabal.
