Mitica Drunken Goat Cheese, 6 lb

Mitica Drunken Goat Cheese is a celebrated Spanish specialty, crafted in the region of Murcia using pasteurized Murciana goat's milk. The cheese undergoes a unique transformation as it is bathed in Doble Pasta, a traditional local wine made from the deep-hued Monastrell grape. This process imparts a striking violet tint to the rind and infuses the cheese with a subtle hint of fruitiness, setting it apart from other goat cheeses. Aged for 60 days, Drunken Goat Cheese retains a mild, creamy character that is smooth on the palate, with none of the assertive tang often associated with goat cheeses. Instead, you’ll find a gentle, approachable flavor profile that allows the influence of the wine to shine through in the finish, offering a delicate balance between the creamy interior and the aromatic, wine-kissed rind.

The texture of Drunken Goat Cheese is semi-firm, making it easy to slice or cube for cheese boards, salads, or sandwiches. Its mild flavor and supple body make it a favorite for entertaining, as it pairs beautifully with both red and white wines, particularly those with fruity or earthy notes. For a memorable presentation, serve Drunken Goat Cheese with Marcona almonds, fresh figs, or a drizzle of honey to highlight its subtle sweetness and wine-infused character. Whether enjoyed on its own or as part of a Mediterranean-inspired spread, this cheese brings a taste of Spanish tradition to your table.
