Description of the raw material
Monterigo cheese is produced in central Europe, a rural area that has always been suited to agriculture and breeding for the production of cheeses. The cows are fed naturally, which makes it possible to obtain high quality milk. This, combined with a production technique that replicates those of the most famous Italian grana cheeses and with careful quality controls, allows to obtain a natural cheese with an intense flavour. Furthermore, the use of microbial rennet makes Monterigo a vegetarian cheese. Monterigo has a delicate milky scent, it melts slowly in the mouth when tasted in small pieces, releasing a full and persistent flavour.
