Golden Fleece is buttery aged sheep's milk cheese with a straw yellow paste and yellow-orange splotches throughout from saffron threads. It's salty and smooth with a touch of acidity and tart, floral saffron in the finish.
After 16 years working in the cheese industry, Antonio Poves decided to take a leap of faith and build his own dairy, which makes artisanal sheep, goat, and mixed milk cheeses. Situated in Cuenca, in the heart of Manchego country, these sheep capture the incredible variety in the terroir of this region.
