At Tirant Nou, the taste of Menorca is truly authentic. This cheese factory, dedicated to cheesemaking for over 14 years, makes DOP Mahón-Menorca cheeses using traditional methods that achieve an intense yet natural flavour. From milder fresco cheeses to the extra mature añejo cheeses, each block reflects the lush environment of the island. They also offer 100% natural sausages including sobrassada, free of preservatives, in a space that breathes tradition and quality.
On the heights of Fornells, Tirant Nou is a must-visit for those in search of artisan cheeses and sausages. With more than a decade of experience, this Menorcan estate produces everything from fresco (fresh) to añejo (extra mature) cheeses, a favourite being the curado (mature) cheese dried for over a year, a true culinary gem. Made with milk from local cows, their cheeses adhere to the standards of the DOP Mahón-Menorca label, offering an unmatched flavour experience.
But Tirant Nou is not just about cheese. Their sausages, including butifarrón and spicy black pork sobrassada, are a tribute to island tradition. All their products are 100% natural, without additives, reflecting their commitment to quality and respect for the environment.
Visitors can buy these products directly from the farm on Friday afternoons and Saturday mornings, or from the craft markets in Fornells, Es Mercadal, and Alaior. Each block of Tirant Nou is a celebration of the authentic flavours of Menorca, and goes hand-in-hand with professional, friendly service to make the experience extra special.
