Caciocavallo 1,9 Kg
A classic, stretched curd cheese, our caciocavallo is soft yet sharp in flavour with a toothsome bite. Moulded by hand into a pear shape, the cheeses are paired, tied with string and placed over a horizontal stick or branch to cure in a cool room. It is thought the name (it translates as “cheese on horseback”) hails from a time when the caciocavello was traditionally transported slung over the saddles of soldiers.
