Mahón DOP Curado is a bold, complex Spanish cheese from the island of Menorca, where cheesemaking traditions date back thousands of years. Protected under Denominación de Origen Protegida (DOP/PDO) status, this cheese is crafted from cow’s milk, aged for 6 to 8 months, and distinguished by its striking square shape and signature orange rind, which develops during the traditional paprika and oil rubbing process.
As it matures, Mahón Curado DOP/PDO acquires a firm, slightly crumbly texture, with a flavour profile that is rich, tangy, and intensely savoury, carrying notes of aged butter, toasted nuts, and hints of salt from the island’s coastal pastures. The ageing process enhances its deep, sharp complexity, making it a standout cheese for connoisseurs who appreciate intense, nutty flavours with a lingering umami depth.
Perfect for cheeseboards, grating over dishes, or enjoying alongside cured meats, Mahón DOP Curado pairs beautifully with full-bodied red wines like Rioja, sherry, or a robust Cava, balancing its aged, salty intensity. It is also a key ingredient in traditional Menorcan cuisine, where it is grated over pasta, potatoes, and seafood dishes to add a distinctive Mediterranean flair.
