Cana de Cabra
Resembling a French Bucheron, this soft-ripened goat milk cheese log hails
from Murcia, an orchard-thick mountainous region of southeastern Spain. The
region is one of climatic diversity, at times hot and arid and at other
times, benefiting from the balmy breezes buffeting in from the Mediterranean
Sea, and is known for engendering high-quality goat milk products.
Cana de Cabra is creamy and mild but has a full and happily satisfying
flavor. Tangy citrus notes balance the rich creaminess of the cheese and
there's a fleeting hint of deep woods' mushrooms that grow in shady spots.
