Blu Smeraldo

A “strange” cheese, called Smeraldo because of the colour between light blue and green that it takes on in the rind thanks to the ageing treatment. It is certainly striking to the eye, and it is strange precisely because it is not usual to see a cheese with this colouring in the rind, but we wanted to create a cheese with an intense character and a unique appearance.

It has a compact and soft structure, slightly moist inside, when cut, if the right knife is used it does not create difficulties, while in the mouth it has a slightly sticky but very soluble structure.

A cheese for lovers of the “piquant” type, as it is very intense, decidedly savoury, with lactic, animal and vegetable sensations, but there is also a basic sweetness, especially in the rind. It has a pleasant piquancy with a very long persistence.

This is a cheese that should certainly be enjoyed at the end of a meal, or even instead of dessert, with a fine dessert wine to accompany it.
We like to define it also as a meditation cheese, given its pleasantness, even for an after-dinner drink, it can also stand up to spirits.

The rind is edible, if eaten a few days after opening, with time and the onset of further mould, we advise against eating it in order not to degenerate the internal organoleptic characteristics.

Without artificial colours.
