Il Cocciuto: an Irpinia caciocavallo cheese made with only raw milk, aged according to an ancient Mediterranean tradition. Each cheese is sealed in a handmade terracotta pot, ready for a slow and fascinating maturation. Average weight about 1 kg.
Il Cocciuto continues its maturation as long as it remains sealed in the earthenware pot. The final degree of aging depends on when you decide to break the pot, resulting in a younger or more aged flavor.
