Idiazabal cheese is a traditional Spanish cheese made from the milk of Latxa or Carranzana sheep. Originating from the Basque Country and Navarre, it has a firm texture and a rich, nutty flavor. The cheese is typically aged for at least two months, which enhances its taste and aroma. This cheese is often enjoyed on its own, paired with fruits, or used in various dishes. Idiazabal can be found in both smoked and unsmoked varieties, with the smoked version offering a distinct, robust flavor. It is a protected designation of origin (PDO) product, ensuring its quality and authenticity.
