BITTO D.O.P

Description

Bitto is a traditional cheese from the Alps of Lombardy. It is named after the river that flows down from Gerla.

In celtic, Bitto means “perpetual” and it is one of few cheeses that, if aged properly, can be consumed even after 10 years. It is straw-yellow, but it can become brownish after a longer ageing. During the ageing its texture gets elastic and hard.

Its aroma is incredibly intense and its taste sweet and delicate.

It can be used on a platter or melted for a rich cheese sauce.
