Le Chevrot
Young Le Chevrot has an off-white, slightly wrinkled rind. When very young, the cheese has a gentle, aromatic, yeasty taste and a fine, moist texture. As it gets older, the interior softens and the flavor becomes nuttier and full-bodied. At its peak age (This is what In Pursuit of Cheese brings to you this month.), the cheese is denser and creamier, and there is a fruity tinge to the taste. Read More

Zamorano
Zamorano, a well-known and respected Spanish cheese, is usually produced in the shape of drum. The cheese is very similar to Castelanno and Manchego in texture, but is less grainy. Its natural rind is covered in gray mold. The flavor offers a hint of burnt caramel and the buttery taste of sheep's milk. Zamorano is used as a table cheese and it ripens in three to nine months.
