Customer Review(s)
Customer Rating: Summary: Incredible flavor, perfect on crusty baguette Comment: This cheese is amazing. I tend to just buy it at Whole Foods, but it's good to know you can get it in more than one place. The flavor on this cheese is perfect. The truffle is very rich and the cheese itself is so sweet and creamy. My favorite way to have it is melted in the toaster oven on some crusty french bread. Mmm!
Customer Rating: Summary: Fantastic Italian Truffle Cheese!! Comment: If you like mozzarella-type cheeses and consider mushrooms their own food group, buy this cheese immediately. I had it at a wine bar in San Diego with my sister and the owner was kind enough to let me sneak a peek at the label so I could buy some of my own. It's a large ball of cheese that comes in it's own fancy woven container and is perfect for putting out at a party with crackers -- that is if you don't eat the entire thing yourself beforehand. The texture is medium firm and it has a melt-in-your-mouth creaminess. The black truffle bits in the cheese give it the most amazing taste - not extremely overpowering like some truffle oils can be, but just the right amount of truffle taste. The truffle bits are not discernible texture-wise (important if you like consistency of texture like I do!) This is such a unique tasting cheese and is certain to impress your guests if you serve it, or if you do keep it all to yourself, try it melted on crusty bread with a slice of ham and with a glass of prosecco. Delish!
