An Artisan Cheese Shop, almost one Hundred Years Old
Quesería La Peral is a family cheese shop founded in 1923 by Antonio León Álvarez, preparing since then La Peral Cheese –with cow’s milk– and Peralzola Cheese –with sheep’s milk– in a handcrafted manner, both these being blue cheese, with noble mould and matured in a natural cellar located under the cheese shop itself.
The well-chosen combination of the latest food technology in its installations, tradition and artisan care in its preparation, make our cheese a product with great personality, highly appreciated by consumers due to the delicacy of its special bouquet.

From the Mountains of Asturias, looking towards the Cantabrian Sea...
La Peral is a small village of the council of Illas, in Asturias, located in the natural environment of green pastureland, on the hills of mount “La Garita”, en-route to La Reigada pass, 600 metres above sea level, from where we look at the blue waters of the Cantabrian Sea.
