Fat cheese made with pasteurized milk from native cows of Frisona and Asturiana de los Valles.
Orange colour due to the paprika added during its manufacturing process.
Its taste is slightly acid, little salty or not salty at all, creamy and quite dry. For red cheese this flavour deepens and becomes strong and spicy. It is doughy and astringent when swallowed. Its aroma is mild, characteristic, and increases with the ripening.
