Taleggio


Taleggio DOP is a soft cheese from Lombardy, made with cow’s milk. It has a thin, pinkish rind and a soft paste that ranges in color from white to straw yellow.

italian pronunciation:
/təˈlɛdʒioʊ/

The flavor is sweet with slight acidic notes that become more pronounced as the cheese ages. As a washed-rind cheese, it is distinguished by its aroma of undergrowth and dried fruits.
