Vandiel
A soft cheese with a rind washed in cider, in the reblochon style.
An orange rind with a marked aroma and an unctuous paste beneath it, milder than the rind, with a memory of apple and cream.
Natural cider and country bread. Warmed, with baked apple.
Vandiel is our soft cheese with a rind washed in cider, which is where its orange colour, its aroma and the unctuous paste beneath it come from. It is natural cider, made by hand and with no added carbonation, poured from a height so that it wakes up in the glass. The cider tradition of this region is a long one and it is still alive, with its presses and its apple orchards. The cider comes from the far side of the gorge. Sajambre looks towards Asturias along the course of the Sella, and Asturian cider culture, listed by UNESCO as intangible heritage in 2024, has always arrived by that same road, the one the cattle and the cheese took on the way out. Milk from the region and Asturian apple in a single cheese, the two sides of the Picos de Europa brought together.
