BRONTOLON DELLA LESSINIA CHEESE LA CASARA APPROX. 2KG

Brontolon della Lessinia by La Casara is a distinctive cheese from the Verona area, made with pasteurised cows milk. It features an unmistakable black-and-white mottled surface, inspired by the coats of the cows grazing in the mountain pastures of Lessinia.

Its interior has a characteristic open texture with irregular holes, developed during an active lactic fermentation. The paste is soft, fresh and creamy. An average ageing period of 2–3 months gives the cheese a rounded, harmonious flavour with pleasant notes of cooked butter.

The name Brontolon means grumbler in the local Venetian dialect and refers to the lively fermentation process that gives the cheese its distinctive texture. An original regional speciality combining local tradition and character.
