The cheese Conciato al Pepe Vaccino from La Casearia Carpenedo is very special and perfectly describes the passion that Antonio Carpenedo has for spices and their aromas.
Specifically, pepper: this small seed contained in a red berry, originally from southern India and cultivated in tropical areas.
The Conciato al Pepe is a cheese made with pasteurized cow's milk aged for a minimum of five months, and at the right moment, it is sealed inside oak barrels with a mix of pepper that is carefully guarded.
The barrels filled in this way follow a precise rotation program to allow for perfect transformation and transfer of flavors.
The cheese Conciato al Pepe Vaccino from La Casearia Carpenedo (which we present in its whole form on this page) has an excellent predisposition for flakes, given its semi-hard paste and compact consistency. In the mouth, the pepper "explodes" gently: piperine, the substance that gives pepper its spicy flavor, is pleasantly balanced by the properties of the cheese with notes of milk and butter. A splendid element for a refined cuisine and enjoyed on its own with a barrel-aged red wine, of good structure or young with a strong character.
The Conciato al Pepe Vaccino cheese is cylindrical in shape, slightly irregular. The rind is dark in color and has a rough appearance due to the massive presence of crushed pepper. The paste is straw yellow and slightly eye-spotted. Very particular to the touch of the rind due to the presence of crushed pepper. The unmistakable aroma of pepper evokes the distant bazaars of India with a mix of wood, flowers, and a faint hint of lemon. Inside, everything is enveloped by the intense aroma of warm milk and butter.
