Toma Blu barricaded with aromatic herbs 1/4 of a 2kg form

The cheese Toma Blu barricato alle erbe aromatiche from La Casearia Carpenedo is one of the most exciting pasteurized milk cheeses. If not the most exciting! It is a delicate blue cheese aged in oak barrels, an incredible example of how tradition and progress coexist in the philosophy of Antonio Carpenedo, a pioneer, researcher, and true archaeologist of ancient flavors to be passed down and combined in his cheeses.

This herbal blue cheese is a watershed between the obvious, the usual, and the already seen, offering an experience from which you cannot return. Made from pasteurized cow's milk and aged for at least 3 months, it surprises you with its buttery consistency and easily deformable paste, slightly elastic, and soft. The sensory experience of Toma Blu is a journey through mountain pastures.

Toma Blu barricaded with aromatic herbs 1/4 of a 2kg form: use in the kitchen

The cheese Toma Blu aged with aromatic herbs from La Casearia Carpenedo (which we present on this page in a quarter shape weighing about 2kg) brings incredible emotions! Tasting it feels almost like breathing in an old spice and cheese shop, with walls steeped in aromas. The balsamic notes linger on the palate, a testament to how the aroma of the herbs can change the texture. The delicate blue veining, the buttery consistency of the paste that melts in the mouth, make Toma Blu a delight for the palate. A refined and delicate cheese that lends itself to the imagination of cooking. Excellent with structured white wine and if enjoyed on its own, it does not disdain a classic method rosé sparkling.
