Valdeon IGP - Maple Leaf Wrapped

Valdeón IGP – Maple Leaf Wrapped

Valdeón IGP is one of Spain’s most renowned blue cheeses, produced in the Picos de Europa mountains. Made year-round from a blend of cow and goat’s milk, this cheese has a soft texture and a pale yellow interior, characterized by small cavities where white and greenish-blue mould develops. Each wheel is wrapped in dried maple and walnut leaves, enhancing its visual appeal and contributing to its earthy complexity.

Valdeón has a mildly spicy and salty flavour with a buttery texture, making it a versatile choice for cheeseboards, cooking, or pairing with robust wines.
