Taleggio DOP (red writing)

The Taleggio DOP red writing from the Taddei dairy is a soft cheese produced with milk, salt and rennet. The milk comes from farms certified for the production of Taleggio DOP. Taleggio is a raw cheese with a washed rind, characterized by the so-called centripetal maturation, that is, from the rind to the center of the wheel.

The paste is straw-white in colour, homogeneous and compact but soft and melting on the palate and has a marked proteolysis given by the progress of maturing which lasts up to 60 days or more . Taleggio is defined as a washed rind cheese, because during maturation it is subjected to sponging with water and salt to control the mold that develops on the rind, these molds contribute significantly to the maturation. The consistency is soft, creamy on the palate it recalls the scents of the undergrowth, with a truffle aftertaste and a medium persistence.
