Specialty Cheeses

MontCabrer, from cheesemaker Can Pujol, is a goats’ milk cheese from the Catalan region of Spain. You may have remembered an ash-covered version of this cheese from a number of years ago. The new version has a beautifully natural grey rind, but no ash. Cheesemaker Josep Cuixart uses butterfat-rich Murciana goats’ milk for this cheese, producing a flavor that is sweet, earthy and slightly meaty with a tangy finish. Its texture is creamy, but semi-firm – MontCabrer is aged for 60-90 days. You will find the cheese listed on our Mediterranean pre-order list.
