Cabra Transmontana Cheese (DOP)

Queijo de Cabra Transmontana DOP is a Portuguese gourmet cheese. This cheese comes from the north-western part of Portugal and is made from the milk of the Serrana Negra goat. The milk is very rich in butterfat and protein.
After the Cabra Transmontano is formed, it is salted and allowed to age for a minimum of 60 days.
This lovely gourmet goat cheese is semi hard with a natural white rind with a firm, hard, slightly unctuous texture. Excellent for grating and as a table cheese.
