Torta del Casar PDO Cheese

GRAN CASAR is our first “great brand,” the one that represents our most cherished tradition: the Torta del Casar PDO cheese. In the early days, we worked hard to make GRAN CASAR a pioneering brand, developing new production and presentation methods that allowed us to maintain its traditional essence while maintaining its production year-round, not just during the season, as was customary until then.

Gran Casar, our great tradition

A cheese as characteristic as GRAN CASAR could only be the result of a great story, which has taken place since the Middle Ages in a single place, the region of Casar de Cáceres, where natural and human conditions converged so that a fortuitous and mysterious event made it possible.

Raw sheep’s milk, vegetable rennet and salt

With only three ingredients you might think that the making of a cheese as peculiar as GRAN CASAR cannot hide any big secrets. However, behind its unmistakable flavor and creaminess is the heritage of great expertise, the result of the traditions and splendorous nature of its place of origin.

Our heritage, the mastery of its elaboration

In addition to the origin and quality of its ingredients, one of the main secrets lies in the mastery of controlling its maturation process of at least 60 days, which causes intense proteolysis that finally turns it into a delicious and creamy soft pasta that is ideal to spread.

Fresh cheese, a healthy and nutritious food

Including fresh, goat or cow cheese in your diet is a very healthy and balanced way of eating dairy products. It is a food with a great contribution of quality essential nutrients: proteins, calcium, potassium, phosphorus and vitamin A mainly. In addition, our fresh cheeses are low in salt, 1% per 100g.
Goat’s milk gives fresh cheese a more pronounced flavor than cow’s milk, it is more digestive because it contains less lactose and provides a nutritional bonus in iron, vitamin D, K and riboflavin.

El Abuelo, all its freshness in less than 48 hours

We make our fresh cheeses with the traditional method, without ultrafiltration, with light pressing and molding, using pasteurized milk and animal rennet, an artisanal process that respects all its flavor and gives a characteristic final consistency.
We preserve its quality and freshness cold during all its processes, from the daily collection of milk, from nearby certified dairy farms, to production and packaging.

Alone, sweet or savory, there are no limits to your recipes.

Gastronomically it has a multitude of applications. It combines very well with sweet and salty, perfect for your salads and desserts, with quince, jams, fruits, etc. Furthermore, as a culinary ingredient it is ideal for cakes, pasta recipes, croquettes, sauces, pizzas, etc. You just have to use your creativity to make your own recipe.

Fresh goat cheese has some qualities that differ from cow cheese. Specifically, goat’s milk gives fresh cheese a more pronounced flavor, and on the other hand, as it contains less lactose, it is more digestive and appropriate for delicate stomachs. At a nutritional level, in addition to the nutrients mentioned above, goat milk also provides iron, vitamin D, K and riboflavin.

To maintain all its quality and freshness, it is essential to keep it cold during all its processes, from the daily collection and reception of the milk, from nearby certified dairy farms, continuing with its production and packaging, and finishing in less than 48 hours with a Quick distribution through our refrigerated trucks throughout the Extremadura region.

Villa Noble, a cheese originating from the north of the Sierra de Cáceres

Villa Noble de Cabra with La Vera paprika, is one of our most distinguished cheeses. A classic of the gastronomy of our land, in which we have invested all the traditional know-how of the areas of the northern mountain range of Cáceres (La Vera, Las Hurdes, the Sierra de Gata), the Ibores and Villuercas mountain ranges, and the San Pedro mountain range.

An exquisite mild, slightly smoky flavor

From 30 to 45 days of maturation with La Vera paprika are enough to acquire that characteristic flavor of this highly appreciated spice. Combined with pasteurized Retinta breed goat milk, the result is a cheese with a soft, tender and creamy, slightly smoky flavor. Its appearance is compact, with practically no eyes inside, with a whitish colour that contrasts with the rind covered with Pimentón de la Vera.
