Fiandino Gran Kinara 250g portion
A grana cheese made with non-animal (thistle) rennet! It takes considerable skill to produce a hard cheese using thistle rennet that will mature evenly for such a long time (18 months minimum) and create such a rich, deep flavour with a balanced sweet-savoury bite to finish. The texture is slightly softer than parmesan: smooth; even and moist – perfect for shaving into salads, serving with antipasti or grating into baked dishes.

Caciocavallo is a unique style of cheese commonly found throughout southern Italy. It is always made in a pear shape, then twisted into a knot at the top and tied together in pairs. This particular caciocavallo is made with the milk from Podolico cows – a rare breed of native cow that produces very high quality milk in very low quantities which gives the cheese an amazing aromatic complexity that lingers on the palate. The flavour is full and piccante with a pronounced bite. This cheese is a member of the Slow Food Presidium.
