Spain is a country of cheeses, of all possible types, but one of those that stands out for its own personality, and that is unique in our country, is Manchego cheese. And at Made in Spain Gourmet, we only choose brands that guarantee the best Manchego cheese, such as Ojos del Guadiana. With a Protected Designation of Origin (PDO), it is located in Daimiel, in Ciudad Real, a natural area, Las Tablas del Daimiel, surrounded by vineyards, almond trees and scrub, a typical La Mancha vegetation, which gives great flavor to milk. The main characteristic of the Manchego sheep is its ancestral purity, and that has meant that they do not mix with other breeds. Thus giving a unique and world-renowned cheese.

Ojos del Guadiana the commitment to promote and maintain with pride the tradition of Manchego cheese, considered one of the best in the world for its very special qualities and its totally handmade production process. The entire cheese making process is carried out completely handmade by its expert cheese masters. The filling of the curd in the molds is done manually, one by one!, with a gentle pressing at first and then more and more intense. The result? A select cheese that stands out for its elegance on the palate, its fruity character and its intense and persistent flavor. Ojos del Guadiana has the appropriate equipment to make cheese with the proper sanitary guarantees, meeting the approval criteria set by the European Union.

An example: To make 1 kg of cured cheese requires between 5,5 and 6 liters of the best milk.

Proud to represent these excellent Manchego cheeses that began their internationalization a long time ago. Because they knew that only by offering the best, they would succeed in international markets.
