This cheese is produced with either sheep and cows’ milk or goat and cows’ milk from animals that are left free to pasture in summer. It is a hard cheese that is aged from 18 to 24 months. The cheese wheels are then wrapped in chestnut leaves giving the cheese its unique and xceptional flavour. It is ideally accompanied by a fine dark specialist beer.
