Portuguese Fresh Cheeses
Product Description:
Our fresh Portuguese cheeses, Santa Maria (made with goat's milk) and St. John's (made with cow's milk), are made using artisanal methods that respect the traditional know-how of Portugal's cheese-making regions. Mild, creamy, and naturally rich in flavor, they are packaged in 500g tubs to guarantee their freshness. Santa Maria cheese, made with goat's milk, offers a fine texture and a subtle aroma typical of goat's milk. St. John's, creamier, seduces with its softness and suppleness on the palate.
