New Cheese - Taleggio

One of our newest arrivals! Taleggio is a washed rind cheese from Italy. This is name/place controlled (DOP) to assure quality. (tah-KEDGE-oh) is made from cow's milk (this one is pasteurized) , and has a creamy, nutty, slightly saline flavor. Rub or scrape away the over wrapping and enjoy it alone or with a dry Italian wine!
