Sao Jorge cheese hails from the volcanic island of São Jorge in the Azores, Portugal, where lush pastures provide rich grazing for cows. This semi-hard cheese is steeped in tradition, crafted by local artisans using time-honored methods that date back to the 16th century. Its unique flavor profile reflects the island's dairy heritage and the rich, mineral-laden soils. Sao Jorge is not just cheese; it's a taste of Azorean culture and history.
