So many truffle cheeses are just bland cheese creations masked in truffle oil or artificial truffle flavor. Not this one! Caciotta al Tartufo is a high-quality truffle cheese made with exceptional milk in the Roman countryside.
Producers load each batch with wonderful, high-quality black truffles and cow’s and sheep’s milk to create flavors beyond your wildest expectations. They age each wheel over 60 days, which creates delicate, tangy flavors that wash over in every bite.
This is certainly an exotic cheese made for those with a palate for the finer things in life. The final product comes out with a firm texture, but the paste is somewhat soft and mild. The truffles and milk have a real earthy aroma, but the age gives it a little pungency.
Use this flavorful cheese as part of your next cheese or charcuterie board. It stands on its own very well, but it works very well with fresh toasted baguette bread and extra-virgin olive oil. Because it is aged and has earthy notes, the Caciotta al Tartufo can be powerful. Pair it with a dry white wine or a strong red like Merlot.
