Robiola di Roccaverano DOP, 300g

Robiola is a soft-ripened Italian cheese that usually combines cow’s, goat’s and sheep’s milk. There are a variety of robiolas produced in the Piedmont region. Perhaps the most famous of these is the robiola di roccaverano, much loved for its predominant use of roccaverano goat’s milk, a rare breed of goat only found in this region. This Italian cheese is a DOP product, which stands for Denominazione di Origine Protetta, the Italian term for the EU system of Protected Designation of Origin. These laws protect the names of speciality food products with a specific geographic origin.

Robiola di roccaverano has a fresh yoghurt-like flavour, with hints of something slightly spicy, which increases as it ages. We recommend that you eat this luscious Italian soft cheese with crusty bread and perhaps a drizzle of honey.
