The Distinctive Charm of Mahon Cured Cheese by Deliart
A Symphony of Flavor and Tradition
Deliart’s Mahon Cured Cheese is not just any cheese; it’s a journey through time, matured for 10-12 months to perfect its bold and complex flavor profile. Crafted from raw cow’s milk sourced directly from Menorca’s verdant pastures, this cheese is a testament to the island’s unspoiled beauty and the artisanal skill that goes into every wheel. Its distinctive shape, slightly square with rounded edges, pays homage to traditional Mahon cheese. Meanwhile, the aging process enhances both its texture and taste.
Crafted With Care: Ingredients That Tell a Story
The selection of natural ingredients for Deliart’s Mahon Cured Cheese speaks volumes about its quality and authenticity: raw cow’s milk from Menorca, rennet, lactic ferments, salt, calcium chloride (E-509), and potassium nitrate (E-252), with a finishing touch of olive pomace and sunflower oil on the rind. This inedible rind is a testament to the cheese’s aging process, protecting and nurturing the cheese’s rich flavors.
