"Clara Diez has made artisan dairy producers the main characters at Formaje, her cheese shop located in the Chamberí neighborhood. She’s helped put many brands on the city’s culinary radar, getting them served in some of the best restaurants and bars in town, while spreading education about aspects of the cheese trade that had been long forgotten. A visit to the shop might include creamy Olavidia goat cheese, named best cheese in the world at the World Cheese Awards 2021; queixo do pais, a Galician staple; Hornkase, a raw cow’s milk from Germany that’s one of Diez’s favorites; and of course, manchego, Spain’s beloved cheese, which Formaje sources from Castilla-La Mancha. Know before you go: Pick up a souvenir from the gourmet selection of wines, gadgets, sauces, and cured meats." - Paula Móvil
