Sola Val Casotto
The Sola Val Casotto is a surprisingly semi-soft cheese with a natural rind that develops in the caves while it is ageing and lends a beautiful hint of musky earthiness to the cheese.
Taleggio
This iconic Italian softie is a leader in the pungent washed rind family. Made in the northern Valsassina foothills since the 9th century, one bite of the meaty, nutty, fruity interior and you'll understand its appeal
