About the product
$6.44/100 gr
Approximate size of wheel: between 2-2.2 kg.
This particular variety of Caciocavallo (considered the best and more noble example, defined by some as the Parmigiano Reggiano of the South) takes its name from the breed of cattle used for its production. The cows live in a free-range condition, feeding on strongly aromatic grasses such as wild fennel, liquorice and laurel bay whose perfumes are absorbed into the milk.
This is a pre-order cheese and waiting period to receive it is approximately 2 weeks.
