Mahon Cheese from Spain
Mahon has a bold, magnificent flavor that could never be called mild. The yellowish-orange rind conceals a soft, slightly salty and decidely spicy interior.  It is a semi-hard cow's milk cheese made both "young" and "aged".    Many refer to it as a cow's milk version of the famous Manchego cheese, but Mahon is its own delicious cheese.  It does not have to stand in the shadow of Manchego.
