Geographical and climatic diversity makes for a fantastic range of delicious Spanish cheeses made from the milk of cows, ewes and goats.

Passed down from generation to generation, this age-old tradition has resulted in an incredible diversity of cheeses. The essential characteristics of Spanish cheese are influenced by the type of milk used, the climate, and the cheese-making techniques employed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCow's milk cheeses are typically found along the North coast of Spain in Galicia, Asturias and Cantabria.
