About the producer

Los Villajos

Queso Villajos – Artisan Manchego Cheese PDO

Queso Manchego Artesano DOP Villajos is a true gem of our land. Made with raw milk from Manchega sheep, this cheese stands out for its quality and authentic flavor, thanks to a production process that preserves all the milk’s natural aromas. The Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) guarantees that every piece meets the highest quality standards, supervised by the Fundación Consejo Regulador de la DOP Queso Manchego. Villajos cheese is crafted using traditional methods, through a process that, while more labor-intensive, ensures an unrivaled flavor full of nuance. The milk is collected in mechanical milking rooms with immediate refrigeration, allowing the cheese to retain its freshness without losing its natural aromas, since the milk is not exposed to high temperatures. Queso Manchego DOP Villajos is available in three varieties: semi-cured, cured, and aged, offered in different formats to suit each customer’s needs.

Queso Villegas – Variety and Craftsmanship

Under the Villegas brand, we offer a variety of artisan cheeses made with raw or pasteurized milk. In our specialties, such as sheep’s cheese with rosemary, with paprika, and with rosemary and honey, we use raw milk, which brings unique taste and aroma notes, the result of an aging process that respects time and tradition. For those seeking a creamier, more delicate texture, we offer cheeses made with pasteurized milk, such as fresh-style and air-cured cheeses, whose production is based on slow pasteurization that maintains a balanced flavor without the intensity of raw milk. Each of our cheeses is the result of artisan production, rooted in deep knowledge of the process and the expert hands of our master cheesemakers. Thanks to this, every piece reflects the passion and commitment to quality that define us. Made in Spain Gourmet invites you to discover the world of artisan cheese with a deep, authentic flavor full of tradition. From raw-milk cheeses to those made with pasteurized milk, our range is designed to offer you the best of each process, always backed by the Protected Designation of Origin and an unwavering commitment to excellence.
