Description
A Queijeira Matured Peppered Cheese is one of Lactimaf’s strongest premium Portuguese cheese products and a standout discovery opportunity for Asian markets.
Produced in Northern Portugal by Lactimaf, a family cheesemaker established in 1934, this exceptional cheese represents more than 90 years of Portuguese dairy heritage combined with modern production expertise.
Made from cow’s milk and matured for more than 60 days, A Queijeira develops a firm yet refined texture, pronounced aroma and a balanced savoury flavour profile. The cheese is finished with a distinctive peppered rind, creating a gentle spiciness that adds complexity without overpowering the natural dairy character.
The product was recognised as Portugal’s Best Cow’s Milk Cheese at the Cheeses of Portugal Contest from 2017 to 2019, confirming its position among the country’s most respected cow’s milk cheeses.
For Japanese and Asian buyers, A Queijeira offers exactly the type of premium European discovery product sought by gourmet retailers and specialist importers: an award-winning cheese with a strong regional identity, a compelling production story and a flavour profile accessible to a wide range of consumers.
Its visual appearance, premium presentation and award history make it particularly suitable for department stores, luxury supermarkets, hotel cheese selections, fine dining restaurants and specialist cheese shops.
Unlike more familiar French and Italian cheeses already widely available in Asian markets, A Queijeira provides importers with the opportunity to introduce an authentic Portuguese speciality supported by a recognised quality achievement.
