Two of the spectacular traditions combined into one. Mozarella – made with water buffalo’s milk is preserved in Caciovallo – made with cow’s milk. The marriage of the two creates the Cheesella! A re-discovery by Guffanti. This process has 200 years’ worth of history behind it. The pasteurized cow and buffalo milk are aged for at least 10 days.
Aspect and Texture: Yellowish paste, light and uneven due to the two different milk mixtures.
Taste: Persistent with buttery notes, slight acidity.
Serving Suggestion: Pair with white wines and light beers. Goes well with Red tomato Jam. Eat with rye bread or artisan breadsticks.
Luigi Guffanti started in 1876 where they first prepared Gorgonzola cheese. He bought an abandoned silver mine by intuition and later used its temperature and humidity that is constant all year round to mature the cheeses. At the beginning of 1900’s as he quickly captured the market, his sons Carlo and Mario took care of the exportation to as far as Argentina and California.
In recent times, Carlo and Fiori Guffanti continue to manage the business making sure to make their cheese in the best possible quality.
Serving Suggestion: Suits full bodied, aged red wines. Can be eaten with chestnut honey and rye bread.
