Formaggio Latteria di Grotta

The Facts

Country: Italy
Milk Type: Pasteurized cow milk
Age: 12 Months +

Tasting Notes:

Formaggio Latteria di Grotta takes its name from the type of aging, Grotta, signifying that it is matured in caves. The environment inside the cave keeps a stable temperature and humidity that allows this cheese to age and intensify in flavour without over drying.

The result is a piquant, nutty bite with a floral aroma and grassy notes. The hay on the rind also protects the cheese from excess moisture as it ages inside the cave.

Pair with a Chardonnay.

Our cheese mongers hand cut every cheese to order. We will always try to cut the exact weight ordered, however your piece might be slightly over or under the amount listed. But please know that we cut it freshly and specifically for you.

If you order several cheeses, we will usually make up for shortcomings on weight, if any, on the other cheeses ordered.

All cheeses are wrapped in special cheese paper and sealed to preserve freshness during transit.
