TORTA DEL CASAR P.D.O.
Torta del Casar P.D.O . is one of the most typical cheeses from Extremadura, with a very creamy texture and a strong and bitter taste due to vegetable rennet. Suitable for vegetarians.
Torta del Casar PDO is produced in the Extremadura region from the unpasteurized milk of Entrefina and Merina sheep and thistle-flower rennet, making it suitable for vegetarians. It is very similar to Torta de la Serena PDO cheese and also ripened for a minimum of 60 days and turned upside down every day.
This cheese is very creamy and easily spreadable at room temperature, as it should be consumed, and has a soft delicate rind with a yellowish color and light mold spotting. With a special aroma and strong mature taste, Torta del Casar PDO is bitter due to the use of the vegetable rennet.
Ideal to spoon out with Picos and to make sauces, pairs well with cava, white wines and red wines when the Torta has been aged for longer.
