THE STORY

At the table

Queijo de Nisa DOP is one of the emblematic cheeses of Alto Alentejo. It is produced from raw sheep’s milk and coagulated using an infusion of cardoon flowers, following traditional methods passed down through generations. During maturation, the cheese develops a firm texture, characteristic aroma and increasingly intense flavour.
