Mahon
Originating on the island of Menorca, Mahon can be eaten at various ages, but we really like the more aged wheels like these. Since the wheel is only 5 pounds, this amount of aging intensifies the flavor and allows enough time for the proteins to crystallize. The rind is rubbed with olive oil and this does help lessen the sharpness of the cheese. Try a floral Sauvignon Blanc to go with this salty wedge.
