Cheese: Monte Enebro
Country: Spain
Type: Goat




















Today's photo courtesy of Mr. Peter Smith, because my phone was dead after playing Ingress in the freezing cold all lunch break.

The "Man With The Keys Tattoo" basically pushed this cheese into my hands. Enebro is an interesting goat cheese, the rind is pretty funky, a combination of ash and blue mould. The cheese itself is fairly neutral, the typical salty-sweet you get from most goat cheeses. The rind on the other hand is pungent, strong, and earthy. This one isn't for the feint of heart, but if you are into blue cheese and goat cheese it's a unique combination of the two.

I had some caper berries with it, probably not the ideal pairing.
