Produced in the heart of the largest dairy region of the Azores, on the island of São Miguel, this cheese is aged for at least 9 months, creating this strong-tasting firm cheese. Produced with pasteurized cow’s milk, its semi-firm paste is honey in color and contains scattered, uneven holes throughout. Its flavors are unique and delicious. São Miguel starts off sweet, and milky, but finishes with a subtle nutty, spicy flavor and sharpness that lingers nicely on your palate cow’s milk, salt and rennet.
