L’AFFUMICATO

A semi-cured sheep's milk cheese, smoked with spiced woods.

The ancient technique of preservation by smoking with spiced and fragrant wood gave meat, fish and cheese a classic, unique smoky aroma.
Affumicato is a cheese made of sheep's milk that is born from inspiration by this technique and is naturally processed. Its distinctive smell of burnt wood is reminiscent of the atmosphere of the lit fireplace around which our grandparents would sit and rest in the evening after a long day's work.
