Iberico

One of the most popular cheeses in Spain, Iberico can be found on nearly every tapas menu.  It is mild, yet tasty and aromatic.  The blend of milks allows it to have the grassier, herbier flavors of the goat and sheep’s milk toned down by the smoothness of cow’s milk.  It is typically used as a table cheese accompanied by quince paste, but Iberico is also good for cooking and pairs well with Spanish red wines, Tempranillo blends, and Spanish meats, such as Chorizo and Serrano ham.
