{"product_id":"la-paciencia","title":"Patience","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eSame producer as Four Moons. Bodegas Pérez Arquero — the organic-certified estate beside the\u0026nbsp;Tembleque railway station, with its single Manchega herd and the cheese made under master\u0026nbsp;cheesemaker Carlos Molina — produces Patience as its longer-aged DOP expression: curado, held six\u0026nbsp;to twelve months in cellar. The longer cellar time changes the cheese. The buttery lactic register of\u0026nbsp;the semicurado deepens; the raw-milk character intensifies and elongates; flavours of walnut, dried\u0026nbsp;fruit and a hint of chocolate emerge. The texture firms — drier, more crumbly — with the early stages\u0026nbsp;of the crystalline structure that mark a properly aged Manchego. The aftertaste is more pronounced,\u0026nbsp;more intense, more persistent than in the semicurado, but the cheese still retains a buttery quality\u0026nbsp;within its curing window. The Pérez Arquero curado has been recognised by the Cofradía del Queso\u0026nbsp;Manchego, named Best Cured Cheese of Castilla-La Mancha in 2019, and earned a Bronze Medal at\u0026nbsp;the World Cheese Awards 2023–24.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"zales-and-rego","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57465616040319,"sku":null,"price":19.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0920\/9439\/8847\/files\/la-paciencia_1.jpg?v=1778061012","url":"https:\/\/www.zalesrego.com\/en\/products\/la-paciencia","provider":"Zales \u0026 Rego","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
