Cheese, Spain
From the pristine pastures at the foothills of the Sierra Del Cadi, the Catalan Pyrenees mountains, comes this excellent cow's milk cheese. The Cadi Cooperative Society, an agricultural cooperative founded in 1915, is preserving the artisan quality and tradition of an array of Catalan style cheeses, and is the trademark of quality for these cheeses in both Spain and France. Urgelia is a natural washed rind cheese with a wonderfully creamy texture. As with most Catalan pressed curd cheeses, it has a distinctive aroma and a robust flavor. A terrific melting cheese, Urgelia is equally delicious served with fruit and a glass of merlot or a white burgundy.
