Some refer to it simply as “that famous cheese of São Miguel,” a testament to its reputation across the Azores. Famoso Cheese is crafted on the lush island of São Miguel, where rich pastures and a temperate climate contribute to the quality of the milk and the character of the cheese.

This matured cheese features a semi-hard paste with a firm, compact texture, developed through a careful aging process of at least three months. Made from pasteurized cow’s milk, it reveals a strong yet clean aroma and a well-balanced, full-bodied flavor. Its profile is both robust and refined, making it a standout addition to any cheese board or a flavorful companion to rustic breads and regional wines.

A true expression of São Miguel’s dairy tradition, Famoso Cheese embodies the island’s dedication to quality and time-honored craftsmanship.
