Manchego is a pressed cheese made only from the milk of Manchega sheep. The milk is set with rennet at 28–32 °C, the curd is cut, stirred and reheated, then pressed in moulds that print a flower on the faces and a plaited esparto band on the sides. It is salted and ripened 30 days to 2 years. Made in 7 steps over 30 days – 2 years. The longest step, ripen, turning and cleaning, takes 30 days – 2 years (Junta de Comunidades de Castilla-La Mancha 2025) and runs at 3–16 °C (Junta de Comunidades de Castilla-La Mancha 2025). Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis (dominant) and subsp. cremoris, wild strains in artisanal cheese does most of the fermenting.
No fixed amounts recordedThe specification fixes limits, not a recipe. A cheese weighs 0.4–4.0 kg, is at most 12 cm high and 22 cm across, and its diameter is 1.5 to 2.2 times its height.
Manchega ewe milk · In the vat at least 6.5% fat, 4.5% protein and 11% useful dry extract, pH 6.5–7; no milk of other species[pliego-manchego]

Starter: The specification names no starter. Wild Lactococcus lactis from the milk takes part in raw-milk artisanal cheese.

What makes this one different
Manchego is made only from Manchega sheep milk, and its moulds copy the old esparto-grass pleita band and wooden flower boards. It is set at a cooler 28–32 °C and reheated to no more than 40 °C, lower than the cooked Italian pecorino Romano.
Milk
Manchega ewe milk with at least 6.5% fat and 4.5% protein, chilled to 8 °C or less
Setting
Natural rennet or authorised enzymes at 28–32 °C for 30–60 min
Ripening
At least 30 days (up to 1.5 kg) or 60 days (larger), up to 2 years, at 3–16 °C and 65–90% RH
Size
0.4–4.0 kg, at most 22 cm across and 12 cm high; pH 4.8–5.8; fat in dry matter at least 50%; salt at most 2.3%

Safety
The specification sets limits for the finished cheese, including no Salmonella or Listeria monocytogenes in 25 g. Raw-milk cheese may be labelled "Artesano". ANSES advises pregnant women, young children, people over 65 and people with weak immunity not to eat raw-milk cheeses other than cooked pressed ones; Manchego is not cooked.
Hazards the sources name: Limits set for the cheese: Escherichia coli (beta-glucuronidase positive) at most 1000 cfu/g, coagulase-positive Staphylococcus at most 100 cfu/g, Salmonella and Listeria monocytogenes absent in 25 g.
Cervantes ties cheese to La Mancha in Don Quixote, and cookery and dairy books from 1878 on name queso manchego among Spanish cheeses. The flower and pleita marks come from the old esparto moulds, now copied in plastic. The name was provisionally recognised in Spain in 1982.
