Tasting Notes

Herencia 1605 Cured is a bold, robust, powerful yet harmonious cheese. It offers a richly nuanced palate that invites continued enjoyment. Clean, elegant, and fruity aroma with hints of leather and wool. A pleasant fatty sensation (reminiscent of olive oil) is perceived, along with a slightly floury granularity. Intense in flavor, initially smooth yet with high persistence on the palate.
An elegant acidity is appreciated, combined with clean animal aromas and a very pleasant spicy aftertaste that emerges at the end, accompanied by notes of nuts (lightly toasted hazelnuts).
