Be careful, may lead to addiction!

The cheese Torta de Trujillo comes from Cásceres. It is made out of sheeps milk and is in the meantime numbered as one of the 5 best cheeses in the world. It needs to be stored at room temperature in order to retain its wonderfully creamy texture. All you do is slice off the top and spoon it out with a teaspoon (can be addictive).
