Unpasteurised Cow's Milk - 200g.  A versatile cheese, taking its name from the word for \"mountain\" in the local Bergamascan dialect. It has a thinner, paler rind when young giving the cheese a more malleable texture. However with more brine rubbings during the ageing process, the smooth rind becomes darker and very hard and the cheese becomes a delicious fruity and fragrant morsel. \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle\" style=\"text-indent: -18pt;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Symbol; mso-fareast-font-family: Symbol; mso-bidi-font-family: Symbol; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-list: Ignore;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font: 7.0pt 'Times New Roman';\"\u003e       \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--[endif]--\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuadrello\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cem\u003e|\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003eBergamo, Pasteurised's Buffalo's Milk. 200g\u003cb\u003e.\u003c\/b\u003e From Bergamo close to the beautiful Italian Lakes and where the climate is perfect for pasture.  This shows in a white buffalo milk washed rind cheese that tastes sweet, earthy and sappy from the washed rind.
