Regional selection:

Selection by milk:
Sheep
Milk Treatment:
Pasteurized milk
Named after the mother of the two brothers who now run and operate La Casera, this soft ripened sheep's milk cheese is truly an original. Produced in the area of Cuneo the texture is soft and delicate, and slightly elastic. Both the paste and the rind are stark white but the flavors give way to a delicate, more buttery flavor. Bites of the rind are a bit earthy but compliment the hints of mild sheepiness in the paste.
