QUESOS POBLE BENASSAL, THE BEST TRADITIONAL SHEEP CHEESE

Quesos Poble Benassal is a family-owned manufacturer and distributor of cheese whose origins are dated in the 40's. Today, third generation manages the company which is located in Benassal, a small village within the Maestrazgo Mountains (Castellon province).
Now, following the family tradition but using new facilities, the company is dedicated to the manufacture of fresh cheese, “requesón” (similar to cottage cheese) and a new range of matured and semi-matured cheese made from goat and sheep milk.
A sample of the product quality is the 1st Prize for the Best Valencian Sheep Cheese, which they received in 2005.
They also got the quality mark CV for cheese made in the Valencian Region, given by the Ministry of Agriculture, Fishing and Food of the Valencian Government.
