Cheeses: Queso de cabra payoya

What to pour with their cheese

Queso de cabra payoya with Amontillado

Our pick

Payoyo describes its semicured goat cheese as very creamy, nutty, slightly acid and savoury. A dry Amontillado, aged first under flor and then in contact with air, has the depth to meet it, and sherry.wine names semi-cured cheeses for Amontillado.

Queso de cabra payoya with Oloroso

Our pick

Payoyo describes its cured goat cheese as dark straw and smooth, with an intense goat flavour. A dry Oloroso, aged entirely in contact with air, has the depth to match it, and sherry.wine calls Oloroso the perfect match for well cured cheeses.

Queso de cabra payoya with Manzanilla

Our pick

Quesería El Gazul calls its goat cheese creamy and balanced, with fresh herbal notes and clean milky tones. A Manzanilla, bone dry and aged under flor in Sanlúcar de Barrameda, meets that freshness with its own. Serve it very chilled.
