The charming name given to them closely resembles reality: indeed, to make a cheese drunk, it must literally be thrown into vats full of fresh pomace, just pressed and not squeezed. The shape absorbs significant amounts of liquid from the must that reaches the heart of the cheese. The result is a sensation cheese, with unique taste, color, and aroma!
Our drunken cheeses are Italian and come from award-winning and excellent dairies. In short, these are not just cheeses; they are true works of art!

Our drunken cheeses are real specialties created by true artisans of taste: refined by immersion in tanks full of wine or pomace.
Would you have ever thought that it could be so easy to find and purchase these rare delicacies online at a fair price? Yes, because here we are talking about cheeses that are very difficult to find and also limited edition. The drunken cheese is nothing more than a matured cheese that is aged under fresh pomace from fine wines, requiring both a maturation period and then an aging process.
The immersion duration varies from 8 to 10 days for mature cheeses, while it can take about 30 days for aged cheeses. Once removed, they are dried and cleaned, then left to age for another 15 or 30 days before tasting.
However, be careful not to make the mistake that many still commit; confusing aged cheese with blue cheese, which, unlike aged cheeses, is injected with "good" molds.
Not all cheese preparations are studied and experimented with, and in the case of drunken cheese, we are faced with a fatality, one of those cases where man had to make a virtue out of necessity, creating, without intending to, a true myth of global cheese production. It is said that during World War I, in the Sinistra Piave Trevigiana region, during the retreat from Caporetto, to hide the cheese wheels from the starving Austro-Hungarians, these were hidden under a pile of pomace, considered waste material and therefore not subjected to searches. Once the dangers passed, the wheels were recovered, and in the meantime, they had changed color and texture. This unusual maturation made the cheese much better, with a taste between spicy and fruity. Since then, drunkenness has evolved, and today drunken cheese, with its various techniques, is part of the culture and high-quality gastronomic preparations.
Spaghetti & Mandolino has always been synonymous with quality: we are the only e-commerce in Italy that guarantees, in online sales, only excellent drunken cheeses that, as such, deserve a shipment and compliant packaging that preserves the integrity and freshness of each cheese thanks to special freshness-saving packages!
