Girotondo is not what you think when you look at the pic… it is not the most famous Swiss cheese, but a completely unknown sheep’s milk cheese produced only with Italian milk, created precisely to give prestige to our dairy skills too.

It took almost two years of trials and experiments to create this cheese, but then we
managed to make the cheese with the ideal texture to also be used with Girolle. Ideal for appetizers or to garnish meat carpaccio, but also to decorate dishes.

However, its ideal use is as an aperitif to combine with an elegant bubble wine, a cheese capable of astounding, exciting, thanks to its way of being presented, a flower of cheese that amuses, in fact it is another of our “fun” cheeses. entertaining, as it’s great to see the cheese petal being created and great when you taste it. It cannot go unnoticed.
