Central Fromaggi - Moliterno al Tartufo - (150g - 175g)

Pasteurized Sheep's Milk - Italy

Produced on the island of Sardinia off the coast of Italy, this is an unforgettably dense and fudgy pecorino laced with thick veins of black truffle. 

While many truffle cheeses are fresh, this one is aged with the special ingredient added, interestingly, after some maturation has already taken place. After traditional wheels of Moliterno age for two months, the most flawless rounds are selected to become Tartufos and enclosed in plastic bags so they stay soft. The paste is infused with freshly ground black truffles during a proprietary injection process, creating the unique zebra stripes whose flavors permeate wheels during additional months of aging; the cheese's surface is also rubbed with the truffles.
