Garrotxa is an artisanal goat milk cheese produced in the Garrotxa region of Catlonia., Spain. With a minimum 2 months of maturing, it resuts in a smooth, slightly salty, creamy texture. We fell in love with it at Spanish Pig on our first bite. 

This cheese was almost extinct by the early 1980s, thankfully it has been revived by  young cheesemakers and goat farmers' cooperatives in its birthplace of Garrotxa.

A pasteurized semi soft cheese, traditionally made from the milk of Murciana goats and aged in caves to enhance mold development and the resulting flavor.

We’re thrilled to announce that Mahon cheese, the beloved cheese from the island of Menorca, is now available at Spanish Pig in a variety of sizes to suit every appetite! Whether you’re crafting a gourmet cheese board, looking for the perfect companion to your favourite Spanish wine, or just want a little wedge to snack on at home, we’ve got you covered.

Aged to perfection, Mahon is known for its smooth, buttery texture and distinctive sharp, salty edge—thanks to the sea breezes that flavour the milk of Menorcan cows. Its natural orange rind and crumbly yet creamy interior make it as visually striking as it is delicious. Whether young and milky or aged and intense, Mahon offers a depth of flavour that’s hard to resist.

Now that we’re offering multiple size options, it’s easier than ever to bring a taste of the Balearic Islands into your kitchen. Add a small wedge to a picnic basket or go big for your next gathering. However you slice it, Mahon always delivers.

Explore the new size range online or in store and experience why this DOP-protected cheese is a favourite across Spain.

Grilled Mahon & Piquillo Pepper Sandwich
Ingredients (serves 2):

4 slices of rustic Spanish-style sourdough or country bread

100g Mahon cheese, sliced

4–6 piquillo peppers, drained

1–2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Optional: a few slices of mild chorizo or salchichón

Optional: a touch of garlic (rubbed on the bread)

Instructions:

Prep the bread: Lightly brush the outsides of the bread slices with olive oil. If using garlic, rub a cut clove on the inner side of each slice for a gentle hint of flavour.

Assemble the sandwich: Layer Mahon cheese on one slice, top with piquillo peppers, and add chorizo or salchichón if using. Top with the second slice, oiled side facing out.

Grill: Heat a pan over medium heat. Grill each sandwich for 3–4 minutes per side, pressing gently, until golden and the cheese is melted.

Serve: Slice and enjoy warm with a handful of olives or a glass of Spanish red.

Manchego cheese and membrillo (quince jelly) are the perfect partners and make a delicious and traditional Spanish appetizer.

The manchego is aged for 12 months, giving it a sharper, nuttier flavour and a firmer, more brittle texture. Membrillo, or quince paste, is a firm, fruity complement to the cheese, which tastes like a combination of pear, apple and citrus. The sharpness of the cheese with the fruity sweetness of the membrillo is a delicious combination that you're going to love.

Cut some triangles of the manchego and then spoon some of the delicious membrillo, and place it on top. Serve with some crackers on the side or along with some more cured meats for a fantastic Spanish appetizer platter. 

Each kit includes:

Manchego Cheese (200g)

Quince jelly (300g)

This Manchego cheese is aged, giving it a sharper, nutier flavour and a firmer, more brittle texture than its younger namesake. It is produced in Central Spain's La Mancha region, a territory known for its fierce winds, violent temperature swings and desert-like aridity.

This Manchego is made using traditional methods under strict quality guidelines. Our dairy can look back to three generations of appasionate cheesemakers and it is one of the most awarded dairies in La Mancha, both nationally and internationally, and the only specialized in producing only sheep's milk cheeses.

Honey and Oregano Manchego Cheese is a brilliant fusion of sweet, herbal, and savory flavors wrapped in the unmistakable richness of Spain’s most iconic cheese. Made from sheep’s milk in the La Mancha region, this semi-cured Manchego is delicately infused with wild oregano and finished with a touch of honey, creating a balanced and unexpected twist on tradition.

The cheese itself is firm yet creamy, with the unmistakable nutty, slightly tangy character that defines authentic Manchego. The addition of honey lends a gentle sweetness that rounds out the sharper notes of the sheep’s milk, while the oregano adds a fragrant, Mediterranean herbal lift. The result is a cheese that’s both rustic and refined—perfect for serving with crusty bread, Marcona almonds, or thin slices of jamón.

Equally suited to a cheese board or a casual picnic, Honey and Oregano Manchego also pairs beautifully with fruity red wines, dry rosés, or even a splash of vermouth. It’s a crowd-pleaser with character: bold enough to stand out, but nuanced enough to keep you coming back for another bite. A delicious way to explore the creative side of Spanish cheese-making without straying too far from its roots.

Manchego with Black Olives is a classic Spanish pairing that’s all about balance and bold simplicity. The firm, nutty richness of Manchego cheese—especially one that’s been aged for 6 to 12 months—holds its own beautifully against the briny depth of black olives like Aragón or Empeltre. The cheese brings a buttery, slightly tangy flavour with hints of grass and lanolin, while the olives add a rich, earthy saltiness that cuts through the Manchego’s creamy texture.

Together, they make an effortlessly stylish tapa. No bells and whistles needed—just two iconic Spanish ingredients working in perfect harmony. It’s the kind of pairing you might be served at a bar in Seville with a glass of sherry or vermut on the side. Ideal for a pre-dinner nibble, picnic board, or lazy weekend snack.
