About Manchego
Manchego is a nutty, semi-hard cheese crafted from the milk of Manchega sheep in Spain's La Mancha region. Renowned for its firm texture and distinctive tangy flavor, it ranges from mild to sharp depending on its aging, which can span from 60 days to over 12 months. Manchego is rich in protein and calcium, supporting bone health, and contains vitamins like A and D. However, it is also high in saturated fats and sodium, so moderation is key. Lactose-intolerant individuals may find aged Manchego easier to digest due to its lower lactose content. This cheese is a staple in Spanish cuisine, often served alongside fruits, nuts, or cured meats, making it a versatile and flavorful addition to balanced diets.
