- Provolone Piccante: We love this Piccante version, which is rarely available in the U.S .and much more interesting than the mild Provolone most Americans have come to know. One of the great sandwich cheeses, Provolone Piccante is also an excellent melting cheese that is perfect in omelettes or atop a toasted baguette. (8 oz.)
- Grana Padano Stravecchio: The original hard Italian cheese, Grana Padano is a firm, dry, fruity cheese from the Po Valley of Northern Italy. Stravecchio is aged for an optimal 20 months. Grate it over pasta, vegetables, or soup; or serve it as a table cheese drizzled with extra virgin olive oil. (8 oz.)
- Mountain Gorgonzola: Italy's famous blue cheese comes from Lombardy. Made from cow's milk taken from local herds that graze on beautiful rolling pastures, no Italian Cheese Assortment would be complete without a cut of authentic Gorgonzola. (8 oz.)
- Pecorino Toscano: This soft, sheep's milk cheese is made in the hills of Tuscany. It is young, sweet and springy. We find that this combination well represents the wide variety of flavors and textures found in Italian cheeses. (8 oz.)
- igourmet.com Signature Cheese Serving Knife: Specifically crafted for us at igourmet.com, this multi-function cheese knife is the perfect tool to easily slice uniform servings of your favorite cheeses.

Comments about Italian Cheese Sampler in Gift Box:
I sometimes purchase cheese from the local ethnic stores, but its a major hassle to go to town to purchase them because of parking tickets. The Italian cheeses purchase here are equal in quality without the local parking authority hassles and travel and gas and local taxes.[...] I hope this quality from igournmet continues into the future. What I notice about online stores is that your first purchases from them are top-notch, but as the months/years go on,they get worse... PLan to purchase many christmas gifts from this site into the future. Thanks again!

These cheeses are wonderful. My wife surprised me with them for Valentine's day. What a treat! We sampled each one as hors d'oeuvres before dinner and there is plenty more to use in other dishes. Highly recommend this sampler.

Comments about Italian Cheese Sampler in Gift Box:
I love to experiment in the kitchen so the first thing I did was whip up an incredible 4 cheese pasta that was out of this world. We have used the cheese on salads and it our favorite recipies. I am 100% Italian American and pretty fussy about ingredients. I would highly recommend this assortment as it is very high quality with an assortment of incredible tastes you won't be dissapointed in!
