Description
Rico Traditional Flamengo represents one of Lactimaf’s most historic Portuguese cheeses, preserving the recipe and cheesemaking tradition that helped establish the company in 1934.
Produced in Northern Portugal by Lactimaf, a family-owned cheesemaker with more than 90 years of experience, Rico Flamengo reflects the heritage of Portuguese dairy craftsmanship combined with the reliability required by modern food buyers.
Made from cow’s milk, this semi-soft cheese offers a balanced flavour profile that is rich enough for cheese specialists while remaining approachable for consumers discovering Portuguese cheese for the first time. Its versatile texture makes it suitable for a wide range of applications, including slicing, sandwiches, breakfast service, cooking, cheese boards and professional foodservice use.
For Asian importers, Rico Flamengo provides an opportunity to introduce an authentic Portuguese cheese category beyond the more familiar European origins already established in the market. Portugal remains a relatively undiscovered source of premium dairy products, offering retailers and distributors the ability to present consumers with a new European cheese story.
The product’s strength lies in its combination of accessibility and heritage. While some traditional cheeses require specialist knowledge, Rico Flamengo offers an easy entry point into Portuguese cheesemaking through its familiar semi-soft style, attractive flavour and practical usage.
Suitable for supermarkets, delicatessens, hotels, restaurants and distributors, Rico Flamengo provides a dependable European cheese solution supported by Lactimaf’s family history, export capability and consistent production standards.
