Picos Blue (Queso de Valdeón IGP) - Spain’s Bold & Leaf-Wrapped Blue

Picos Blue, officially known as Queso de Valdeón IGP, is a powerful and creamy blue cheese from the Picos de Europa mountains in northern Spain. Protected under Indicación Geográfica Protegida (IGP) status, this cheese is crafted year-round from a blend of cow’s and goat’s milk, creating a rich, tangy, and deeply savoury flavour profile.

Wrapped in sycamore or chestnut leaves, it develops an earthy aroma and a beautifully rustic appearance, distinguishing it from other Spanish blue cheeses.

Aged in the natural limestone caves of León, Picos Blue has a dense, creamy texture with intense blue veining. The flavour is robust and spicy, with piquant, salty notes balanced by a buttery richness, making it one of the boldest and most complex blue cheeses in Spain.

Perfect for cheeseboards, crumbling over salads, or incorporating into sauces, Picos Blue pairs exceptionally well with sweet dessert wines like Sauternes or a classic Port, which enhance its savoury depth. It also complements hearty Spanish reds like Tempranillo.
