Raw cow’s milk is mixed calf beef rennet, and starter culture. The cut curds are cooked to a temperature of 40ºC cook it to obtain an elastic texture. After molding, the maturing in the cave lasts a minimum of 2 months, a period during which it develops a natural crust, and a buttery texture in the center.

Texture: Elastic consistency, with evenly distributed small holes.

Color: Yellowish with buttery tones.

Taste: Starting in the center we find a sweetness with hints of butter and and fruits. As we get to the crust, the hints of mushroom and moist earth predominate.
