Špin Istrian teran cheese 230 g

Region of origin: Istra

Istrian cheese in teran pomace is a hard full-fat cheese that aged for 60 days in barrique casks full of red wine made from indigenous teran grape variety. Following its optimal ageing, the cheese is taken out of wine and can be served immediately. Wine gives the rind its purple-brown colouring, though the paste remains light yellow to yellow. Its firm texture allows for easy cutting. Enjoyed on its own, as a welcome cheese with an aperitif or later on, for time spent socialising over a glass of wine. Istrian cheese in teran is not to be heat-treated. The only company it seeks is olive oil and fine wine. 
 
Špin Istrian cheeses bear a unique signature of the Istrian soil, drawing out the very best from the Istrian climate. Istrian pasture lands where our darling cows and our darling sheep graze make the most of the vicinity of the Adriatic Sea that provides the sun, the salt and the inebriating grass fragrance, while the Mirna River and Mount Učka bring along frequent rains and mainland coolness.
