Cracked this open today. I'm packing the other half away to age until it is a Manchego Añejo.

Is that a natural rind or have you brushed it with oil.

I allowed a natural rind to develop for the first few months, then I oiled it.

I've got 7 gallons of milk I need to make a cheese with tomorrow. I believe it'll be another Manchego...it take so long for them to mature that I've got to think way ahead.
