These cheeses are best enjoyed at a temperature slightly below room temperature, around 18-20°C (64-68°F). This range allows the cheeses' flavors and aromas to fully develop without becoming overly soft. If the cheese is stored in the refrigerator, take it out about 30-45 minutes before serving to let it warm up gradually. Keep bread spoons in a cool and dry place, its is also recommended to transfer the breadsticks to an airtight container or resealable bag to protect them from air and moisture. Store jars in a cool, dry place. Refrigerate once opened. Recommended Pairings Albariño – Bright citrus and mineral notes pair beautifully with olives and anchovies.
