    Physicochemical and sensory properties of Adobera, a genuine, understudied Mexican raw‐milk cheese, were explored by analysing commercial samples from different manufacturers and seasons. Composition‐wise, Adobera could be considered a fresh cheese with a high moisture content (42.5%), although its relatively low water activity (0.953) and pH (5.14) and high free amino acid content (0.46 mmol/g, dry basis) could indicate otherwise. Instrumental texture corresponded to that of a semifirm cheese, while its colour was whitish‐to‐ivory. Both texture and composition were significantly affected by sampling season and cheese composition, while some attributes of sensory acceptability significantly varied with brand.
