Castelo Branco is a semi-soft, [[DOP (Portuguese)|DOP]] ewes’ or goats’ [[milk]] [[cheese]] from the town of the same name in the province of Beira Baixa, of which it is the capital. It is about 270 km northeast of Lisbon.

The [[cheese]] is white to straw yellow in colour and has a natural rind. It has a very intense smell and spicy taste which becomes stronger and saltier as it matures. It also hardens and becomes greyer in appearance.

The [[cheese]] is only produced during the autumn.
