Campo de Montalbán is a semi-firm to firm Spanish cheese made from a blend of cows', sheep's and goats' milk in La Mancha. This cheese resembles manchego in texture and appearance, and until 1985 it was in fact considered a manchego. Campo de Montalbán is distinguished by its three milk blend, while manchego contains only sheep's milk.[1] The flavor is also similar to manchego. However, the characters of all three milks are noticeable in Campo de Montalbán.
Campo de Montalban comes in waxed barrel-shaped wheels, with an embossed herringbone design, much like its all-sheep cousin, manchego.
