This cow’s milk cheese from Veneto is bathed in Prosecco and aged for a minimum of 6 months. The creamy yet crystalline paste develops delicate floral aromas and hints of pear and golden apple. It is a perfect marriage of texture and flavor and a part of Sergio Moro’s group of celebrated Ubriaco cheeses. Sergio obtained special permission from the DOP to use Prosecco in the name of his cheese, an honor they don’t bestow upon just anyone.
This ancient cheese is made from 100% sheep’s milk collected in the countryside of Rome and produced in Nepi, 15 miles north of the city. Aged 10 months to 1 year and coated in black wax per tradition, Fulvi® is in a class by itself. What separates Fulvi® from other Pecorino Romanos is the higher butterfat content of the whole (not skimmed) sheep’s milk from Lazio, making it less dry and hard than those made in Sardinia. The cheese is also less salty, allowing you to enjoy its rich flavor grated or eaten as is. Even a small amount will create a hearty flavor to enhance your favorite dish.

This goat cheese comes from the Veneto Region of Italy. It is produced in the foothills of the famous range of Mountains known as the Dolomites, specifically in the area known as Belluno Mountains, which lie due North from the famous City of Venice. Here the goats roam freely and the milk reflects the varied grasses, flowers and herbs of these rich mountain pastures. Made with pure goats milk, the cheese is first aged for a period of 3 to 4 months. It will then begin the second phase of maturing. For approximately 3 to 4 weeks the rind will be carefully cured , each cheese being individually rubbed daily by hand with the finest extra virgin olive oil, and then with large grains of fresh black pepper. This perfect blend of a very fine cheese with its delicate and never too strong aroma from the goats milk, together with the extra virgin olive oil and black pepper give us an unusual, very delicious and very interesting cheese.
