My first hard cheese

[Albert]

Well, after two months of aging, it's time to cut my first hard cheese. It smells good, small eyes, creamy, I'm quite happy with the results. Made from raw cow's milk, from the cattles of a friend, I hope it will be heaty safe...
I show you some pictures, please let me know your opinions

Looks really wonderful!  Congratulations!!  Isn't exciting to get such a nice looking rind?   :D. I got my first rind like this recently and I felt as excited as if the cheese had graduated from college!   ;D. Do tell us how the taste is please.

Hi everybody!!!
I'm really excited about your nice comments of my cheese!!! Thanks
The recipe was a blasphemic version of a Monterey Jack. The rind is like this because a lot of unwanted moulds were appearing during the aging, and I brush it several times with vinegar + salt.
The taste is good, really good, strong flavour due to raw milk, a bit smelly, creamy. The taste is similar than an old Mahon type cheese from Menorca.
Thank you again!!!
