Sa Canova: Among the Best Artisan Cheeses in the World
Sa Canova produces DOP Mahón-Menorca cheese and other artisan specialities made using milk from local cows. Its commitment to tradition and quality has earned it several international awards, standing out as a leading Menorcan cheesemaker.
La Industrial Menorquina, founded in 1990, is the company behind the Sa Canova brand. In its quest to make the most of the high-quality milk produced in Menorca, it began making traditional Mahón-Menorca cheese. This product, protected under a Designation of Origin, is made using artisan techniques that respect Menorcan tradition, standing out for its unique flavour, texture and aroma.
Beyond the Mahón-Menorca cheeses in the varieties of tierno (mild), semicurado (medium mature) and curado (mature), Sa Canova has expanded its range with innovative creations such as Cala Blanc, with a creamy texture, and Cala Blau, with blue veins that give it a distinct, intense flavour. These varieties combine the quality of local milk with creativity, allowing Sa Canova to offer options to satisfy all tastes.
The milk used by Sa Canova comes from its own farms, ensuring total control over the quality of the primary ingredient. One of these farms, where the brand name Sa Canova comes from, reflects a commitment to sustainability and care for the environment. This approach allows them not only to ensure their cheeses and dairy products remain excellent, but also to create new products that respect Menorca’s roots and deliver them to an increasingly wider market.
With a strong track record, Sa Canova continues to lead in artisan cheesemaking, while also focusing on creativity and quality, being recognised internationally at competitions such as the World Cheese Awards. Each Sa Canova product tells a story of tradition, passion and dedication to the art of cheesemaking.
