Omeka

It is a fatty, matured cheese with a natural rind, which can be made with cow’s, sheep’s, and/or goat’s milk. It is lightly smoked and has slight Penicillium blooms along the edges. Gamoneu becomes a blue-veined cheese after a long aging period in the cave. With a shorter maturation time, it is predominantly white to yellowish in color, with greenish-blue veins of Penicillium spreading from the outside toward the center. The paste is semi-hard and crumbly, with a strong but not overpowering aroma, and smoky notes. Some wheels are quite large, weighing up to eight kilograms, with an intense smoky aroma and a spicy flavor
