It has a cylindrical shape and it's height varies between 5 and 9 cm. The cheeses typically weigh between 650 g and 1.2 kg and have a semi-hard, smooth rind. The natural colour of the rind is greyish, but if rubbed in oil, it is an ochre-yellow. It can also be orangey-red if it has been coated in paprika
The cheese itself is pale yellow, semi-hard and has a soft, buttery and moist texture. It also has a few small holes. The aroma varies from mild to moderate, and is characteristic of a goats' milk cheese made from raw milk.
