Tumeric Toma

Item #: 5504

Le Fattorie Fiandino takes this semi-firm cow’s milk toma to the next level by adding turmeric to the paste. The cheese has a lovely golden color, a light spicy, floral aroma, and distinct flavor with brothy savoriness. The dairy pioneered the use of thistle rennet in cow’s milk cheeses, a very rare combination in the Italian cheese world. Cousins Mario and Egidio were inspired by their shepherd grandfather to make unique cheeses with milk from Bruna Alpina cows. Turmeric Toma, a vegetarian cheese, is aged 60 days and has notes of fresh cut grass, a pleasant sweetness, and a slight tang.
