Located in: Cheese, Italy

Caciotta Dei Boschi, an elegant table cheese made from scarce Roman sheep's milk and rare black truffle shavings, is made by the highly regarded Lopez Company, a family owned and operated business that has been making cheese in the Roman countryside for several generations. Caciotta is a name used all over Central Italy that denotes a farmhouse sheep's milk cheese. This caciotta is quite tangy and sharp, as are all sheep's milk cheeses, and highly aromatic with a distinctive, lingering aftertaste, thanks to the truffles. Caciotta Dei Boschi also contains bits of Porcini mushrooms, which serve to further augment the earthy character of this Italian masterpiece.

Made from pasteurized sheep's milk.

I was hooked immediately. Skipped my previous known favorite cheeses to keep tasting this one. It will be added to the list of party cheeses because it has a taste everyone enjoyed.

Comments about Caciotta Dei Boschi:

This is one of my favorites. I use it on just about all of my italian dishese in place of parmesan. The flavor is strong, but mouthwatering. At cheese parties, I shave it into a small bowl so that people can pop a sliver into their mouth and let the flavors melt over their tongue. A little goes a long way.

A very different cheese with a very excellent flavor of the truffle. a cheese that one can hardly quit eating after e first bite. the thing that is not so great about this cheese is there is never enough.
