Why it’s so delicious?
Our Reserve Caciocavallo di Agnone was awarded the Supergold medal and declared Best Italian Cheese at the World Cheese Awards in Birmingham (UK). It was also officially included in the list of the 54 best cheeses in the world.
Caciocavallo with hot pepper is a semi-hard stretched curd cheese, with a sweet taste, produced with milk from small and medium-sized cattle herds in a semi-wild state with a diet based mainly on pasture.
Caciocavallo is the most typical and widespread cheese in the hilly and mountainous areas of Southern Italy. It has a very characteristic shape, pear-shaped, with a head tied by raffia, used to hang them in pairs during seasoning. The caciocavallo has a straw yellow colour, which tends to darken with ageing.
