TETILLA CHEESES

This cheese has a mild, milky flavor, reminiscent of fresh milk or cream, it is buttery with a touch of salt. With a thin rind, straw yellow, without mold, its paste is yellowish white, soft, creamy and without eyes or with very few.
Tetilla cow's cheese is one of the most representative and well-known Galician cheeses both inside and outside the region and has a designation of origin (Queixo Tetilla).
Tetilla cheese is made mainly with pasteurized milk from 100% Galician breed cows. Its conical shape, given by the funnels where it curdles, is what gives it its name as it resembles a "tetilla" or "mama".
It is ideal to combine tetilla cheese with acid and fresh white wines, or with young red Mencía wines from Ribeira Sacra.

Lactose content is less than 2%, so it is suitable for people with lactose intolerance.

OUR AWARDS

Our products have won national and international awards during the last 20 years showing the quality and care we put into each one of them.
Prestes' presence in gastronomic events, tastings and competitions (Alimentaria, the Gourmet Fair or Anuga), achieving prestigious international awards, such as the World Cheese Awards, allowed it to gain a place in the dairy market as a reference company.


WORLD CHEESE AWARDS
Concurso organizado por The Guild of Fine Food. Es el mayor concurso del mundo solo para quesos. Participan mas de 3.000 quesos de 35 países.
Tenemos el orgullo de haber recibido 14 premios de World Cheese Awards desde 2009.

This family business was founded in San Simón (Vilalba, Lugo) in 1991, producing the first pieces of cheese called San Simón da Costa. When the Regulatory Council of the DO San Simón da Costa was created in 1996, the promotion of the cheese was so great that it imposed the adaptation of small cheese factories, expanding their spaces and, consequently, their production. In the 2000s, Prestes was consolidated as a cheese factory. Its presence in gastronomic events, tastings and competitions (Alimentaria, the Salon del Gourmet or Anuga), reaching prestigious awards at international level, such as the World Cheese Awards,

allowed it to carve a niche in the dairy market as a reference company. In 2016, it began an export process that forced it to move to larger facilities, adapted to the new production capacity based on product diversi cation. This change of mentality came from the hand of a new generation of cheesemakers, who seek the positioning of the different Prestes varieties in national and international markets.

TRADITION

The respect for tradition, the raw material and the care with which Prestes manufactures its cheeses, turn each product into an exquisite, quality and healthy food.
