Hispanico with saffron from January

[Danbo]

Opened one of my hispanicos with saffron from january. As with most of my other cheeses it had been vacuum packed. Not sure if that's why it had a bit of an off taste. Well I'll let it air for a day or two and then we'll see...

What was the off taste like?

What was the off taste like?

I think the "off taste" stems from the saffron. I experienced an off-putting character to my Saffron-Infused Hispanico.

I think saffron works well in company with other components in cooking, but when isolated in a cheese...it overpowers.

Other cheeses have been made and consumed, but this Hispanico may still be lurking in my fridge...somewhere.

I think that you are right. It must be the saffron overpowering...
