Mitica® Leonora® a Fuego

Spanish cheesemaker Oscar Fernando Marcos Gonzalez puts a spicy twist on his beloved Leonora with this original goat’s milk creation. He crafts Leonora a Fuego by coating the rind of this soft-ripened cheese with a layer of smoky Spanish pimentón before aging it, giving the downy rind a bright red hue and infusing the cheese with a hint of pepper. A perfect balance of sweetness, spice, and creamy lemon notes, this velvety chèvre is a standout on any cheese board. Serve it with Virginia Chutney Company Hot Peach Chutney and Z Crackers Garlic and Basil Crackers.
