Finca Pascualete Mini Retorta Cheese Reviews

5 Rating 27 Reviews
Read Basco Fine Foods Reviews

Made by Finca Pascualete and established since the 13th Century, this Spanish torta cheese is made from unpasturised sheep's milk with nothing other than the addition of salt and thistle rennet, making it suitable for vegetarians. The sheep graze on the wild pastures of Extremadura which imparts a floral herbacious flavour to the cheese. The cheese is creamy, almost liquid, with an ivory colour and a powerful flavour and aroma. Soft, unctuous and creamy, Finca Pascualete Retorta cheese is best eaten by cutting of the top and spooning out the creamy paste onto some toasted sourdough.

Full of bursting laughter lovely rich flavours. Perfect for a special occasion. Well presented and appropriate packaging. Everyone just loved the nutty flavour and creamy texture.

Continually stunned by this cheese. In my opinion it should be recognised as one of the worlds best. However, as long as it isn't it means I can always get some!

It's quite small, quite ugly, but utterly delicious

I purchased this cheese to get my order over £75 to get free delivery rather than pay the £6.75 delivery. What a piece of luck I chose this product as its absolutely magnificent. If you like a strong, smelly, runny cheese then try this. It tasted fantastic, the aroma is heavy and it’s shot straight to my number one favourite cheese and I’ll be buying it again and again to treat and surprise cheese loving friends.

Delicious as part of a sort-of-tapas meal with white Rioja and Manzanilla to drink. Intense and powerful, not for the faint hearted!
