Named for the trade wind that blows through the Canary Island of Fuerteventura where it’s made, Alisios is a firm, mild cheese crafted from a mix of cow and goat’s milk. This milky and snackable Spanish cheese has a coating of bright pimentón on its rind, giving it an eye-catching red-orange exterior and a spicy-sweet pop of toasty flavor. Creamy and tangy, Alisios is a natural pairing for Spanish snacks like Murray’s Rosemary Marcona Almonds and Fermin Iberico Sliced Chorizo.
“This cheese is beautiful in wedges or on a cheese plate. I like to use it with a girolle to create gorgeous florets. Serve it with either red or white wine as an exciting substitute for Manchego at a Spanish-themed happy hour.”
