Castelrosso Cheese (Whole Wheel)
Castelrosso Cheese 8lb (Whole Wheel)
Since 1894, the Rosso family has perfected the art of cheesemaking in Biella, Italy, crafting Castelrosso with an unwavering commitment to quality and tradition. Known locally as toma brusca in the Piedmontese dialect, this semi-firm cheese is produced through an age-old practice that lets the milk acidify naturally before curdling, imparting a distinctive flavor profile that ripens from the outside in.
Made from pasteurized milk of the Bruna Alpina and Pezzata Rossa cows, breeds known for their naturally high acidity, Castelrosso offers a dense and chewy texture with a rich complexity. The cheese reveals earthy notes near the rind and delivers a lactic, tangy finish that deepens with every bite.
