Cabra Pimentão Cheese

This one is an aged goat wheel, its rind rubbed with olive oil and paprika, giving it a handsome, ruddy appearance. One of the cheeses that proves you don't have to be strong to be nuanced and delicious: fairly gentle, it's woodsy, rustic, and nutty, with a light smoky note from the paprika and a sweet tang at the end, fading into a clean finish. Pasteurized. It may also be found attractively packaged in a wooden crate.
