Mahón-Menorca cheese
Mahón-Menorca cheeses maturing in a controlled environment

Mahon cheese, a DOP cow’s cheese from the island of Menorca.

In general, the cheese has a soft, firm texture, depending on the maturity. The colour varies from white to a strong yellow. It does develop small holes, but no larger than the size of a pea. It has a mild, slightly salty and acid flavour, and to some it can have an aroma of toasted hazelnuts.

The cheese can be ordered on line from Delicioso.co.uk and Teddington Cheese Online. It is also available from Waitrose. If you like decent Cheddar, you will enjoy this one!
