Aromatic aged in whole walnut leaves 1kg

This Aromatic cheese aged in walnut leaves by Corrado Benedetti is based on a Cimbro and is a genuine and healthy cheese, very fragrant and particularly aromatic.

After a maturation period not exceeding 60 days, the aging process, lasting about two months, takes place in barriques, where the wheels are arranged in layers, alternating with walnut leaves. This method has ancient origins: the rich tannin content of walnut leaves contributes to the preservation of the cheese while simultaneously imparting its unmistakable aroma.

THE HISTORY OF CIMBRO

The origins of Cimbro date back to around 1300, named after the people called the Cimbri, who at that time had settled in Lessinia. Mostly shepherds and farmers, woodcutters, and simple sheep breeders: among the meadows and rocks of the mountain range, they found their promised land. With them, the activity of producing this cheese was born, which has remained in the Veronese tradition.
