Quesos Corcuera is a cheese factory, whose family origins date back over 70 years. It was founded by Eusebio Corcuera and his wife Julia Sánchez and later taken over by their sons Ramón and Juan Carlos, who maintain the same dedication to the factory as their predecessors.

Currently, respecting the same traditional production policy as back then, the other family members pursue the company’s expansion. Thanks to this evolution we have become a reference point in the Manchego cheese sector in Spain and in the rest of the world. 

Our extensive experience in manufacturing cheese has led us to pioneer such important aspects as the introduction of thorough quality control and painstaking care during the ageing of the product. We also enjoy an unbeatable raw material, milk, exclusively from La Mancha, which we collect from farms on a daily basis using our own tanker trucks.

Since the creation of the Regulatory Council of the Queso Manchego Protected Designation of Origin, and as one of the main promoters of its creation, Quesos Corcuera manufactures its sheep-milk cheese range under the seal of approval and guarantee of the Protected Designation of Origin, without ever forgetting the careful manufacture of traditional cheese.

At Quesos Corcuera we manufacture our sheep-milk cheese range under the seal of approval and guarantee of the Protected Designation of Origin

Our cheeses are present in most European countries, Asia, Australia and especially in the USA where Quesos Corcuera was one of the first Manchego cheese exporters over 25 years ago. This gives us a renowned and distinguished position within the cheese manufacturing sector in our own country.

Currently we enjoy the highest national and international quality certificates and food safety certificates such as BRC (British Retail Consortium) and IFS (International Food Standard). Our daily improvement effort, periodic audits and quality control, offer our clients the utmost guarantee for a reliable and safe consumption.

We manufacture our cheeses with the most advanced technology during all of its processes, without ever losing the care of traditional procedures which have made cheese a typical product of La Mancha culture. And we continue to advance and improve our product with the utmost care in its manufacture and in client service.

How can one recognize genuine Manchego cheese? The term Manchego cheese is often used in reference to cheeses that are not protected by the Designation of Origin. To be certain that it is authentic we must look for its identifying elements.

A Manchego Designation of Origin cheese must carry the following elements. Next to the label it must have a small numbered counterlabel with the Designation of Origin’s logo that guarantees that it has been certified by the Regulatory Council. And on the back of the cheese there must be a casein label, numbered and perfectly identifiable, which guarantees its authenticity.
