About Cabrales

Cabrales is a traditional Spanish blue cheese originating from the Asturias region in northern Spain. Made from cow’s milk or a blend of cow, sheep, and goat’s milk, it is aged in natural limestone caves, where cool temperatures and high humidity encourage the growth of Penicillium molds, giving the cheese its distinctive tangy flavor and blue-green marbling. Rich in calcium, protein, and healthy fats, Cabrales can be a nutritious addition to a balanced diet. However, due to its high sodium and fat content, it should be consumed in moderation, especially by individuals monitoring their salt or calorie intake. Cabrales is celebrated in Spanish cuisine, often paired with fresh bread, fruits, or wine, and adds depth to sauces and spreads. Its bold taste and crumbly texture make it a unique culinary experience, appreciated by cheese lovers worldwide.
