PIAVE
This cheese is named after the river Piave, whose source is found at Mount Peralba in Val Visdende, in the northernmost part of the province of Belluno, Italy. A winding course brings the river toward the bottom of the valley until it reaches the plain at the foot of the prealpi venete mountains in the province of Treviso. Piave cheese is born from the cheese making traditions of the land surrounding the ancient river, in which the curd is cooked and the cheese is aged until it is hard. The area surrounding the river is also where the milk is collected to produce Piave. The cheese has an intense, full-bodied flavor that increases with age and makes this cheese absolutely unique. This Piave variety is Mezzano, which means it is aged for six months. We also offer a Vecchio variety which is aged for one year.
* Price is per pound.
NOTE: In order to ensure quality and freshness of this item, we recommend shipping next day/over night, 2nd day or as a local delivery in the Los Angeles area. During the summer months and to certain states, overnight shipping may be required.
