This petite sheep milk cheese is a world champion, having claimed the top prize at the 2018 World Cheese Championships. Aged over six months, it delights with a smooth, elastic texture and an inviting aroma of toasted wheat. Nutty sweetness and gentle tanginess accompany every bite, making this limited-production gem a true masterpiece.</span></p>
