Product Information
A semi-hard cheese from pasteurized whole buffalo milk. Its thin rind covered in pressed ground black pepper encases a compact dry paste with small and even eyes. Its complex olfactory notes include butter, umami, yeast, aromatic herbs like salvia, and floral notes of honey. Sweet mouthfeel, with a balanced saltiness and slight milky and vegetable aromatics. A pleasant consistency thanks to its melt-in-the-mouth and crumbliness.
