Cana de Cabra

A log-shaped goat’s milk cheese with a bloomy rind from Spain made in the tradition of the French bouche chevres, Caña de Cabra cheese comes from Murcia, a beautiful region in the southeast of Spain buttressed by the Mediterranean Sea. The Spanish goat cheese is made from the rich milk of Murcia goats that graze on the lush pastures, infusing the milk with the aroma and flavor of the terroir.

Creamy and dense, with a velvety pate, Caña de Cabra cheese has a great mellow flavor that’s savory, salty and with a citrusy, lemon tang finish. The thick, broad log has a dry bloomy rind that encases a buttery, dense paste that envelops the palate, rich and silky. Serve the Spanish goat cheese on a cheese board paired with nuts, honey or a sweet fig spread, and a bottle of crispy white wine. For a more elaborate twist, bake in the oven like a baked brie.
