KM 39

Item #: 8237

A smooth, golden Alpine cheese made from 100% pasture-fed cows. Cow's milk cheeses are quite common in Galicia, but long-aged (18 months) hard cheeses with this flavor profile and granular texture are rare. Km 39 has intense aromas of fruit and toasted bread and a flavor that has notes of pineapple, banana, and caramel. The long, robust finish brings forward savory flavors of chestnut and walnut.  The name is a reference to its location along the Camino. The cheese is deeply tied to its homeland and has a distinct terroir through the use of proprietary cultures, local molds, and fresh milk from grass-fed cows.
