Description (dimensions, color, aroma, texture): The Cherovia is a root that has the shape of a carrot and the color of a turnip. Its flavor is a mixture of both vegetables, but more pronounced and even sweet. It is a unique and extremely pleasant flavor. The Cherovia represents a tuber with which Covilhã and its Municipality are identified. The vast production is only possible in "lands of Covilhã", which makes it an ex-libris of the local gastronomy, and can be presented in the most diverse ways.
