Caprino Staggionato Al Caprone

Italy, Sardinia

The west coast of Sardinia has perfect grazing conditions on the hilly slopes overlooking the sea. The typical ‘donkey-back’ shape (flat top & bottom & vertical sides) with a dark brown smooth rind from rubbing with olive oil and cinders to prevent thick moulds growing. The compact texture with little eyelets gives an intense and persistent taste and an aroma of dry grass and earthy farmyard. Good as a table cheese or used in cooking
