This Manchego Viejo matured at a minimum of 12 months, but which is often 12-18 months old. This is stronger, harder, and has more bite than its younger counter part. Our Manchego is produced on the La Prudenciana farm by the Alvarez Valera Family, located in the core of La Mancha region, in Tembleque, Toledo. It has a mild, slightly acidic flavour with subtle notes of nuts and dried hay.There are few finer, and more simple combinations than a plateful of freshly cut triangles of manchego and a good hunk of membrillo or quince paste.
