Spressa delle Giudicarie is a semi-fat table cheese produced from the milk of Rendena breed cows fed with local hay. The milk, raw and partially skimmed, comes from two milkings, one in the morning and one in the evening.
Maturation takes place in cool, well-ventilated rooms.
After aging, the aroma is intense and robust yet delicate, with pronounced notes of dried fruit. The aroma also carries hints of cooked milk and boiled vegetables.
The flavor is clean, intense, and savory.
The rind is smooth and thin, while the paste, with a slightly straw-colored hue, features scattered medium-sized eyes.
Spressa delle Giudicarie embodies the traditional cheese-making techniques of the Giudicarie valleys, reflecting a commitment to preserving local culinary heritage. The cheese’s rich flavor profile and distinctive characteristics make it a versatile ingredient in both cooking and serving on its own. Its production process, from the careful selection of milk to the meticulous aging process, highlights the dedication to quality and craftsmanship that defines Italian cheese-making traditions. Spressa delle Giudicarie stands as a testament to the region’s cultural identity and its passion for producing exceptional artisanal cheeses.
