Roccious Aged in a Pit full form

The Roccioso Affinato in Fossa from the Corrado Benedetti company is a cheese made from rocky paste that is white with a slight yellow hue, offering an enveloping taste with mineral hints on the palate.

This unique cheese comes to life in the Prealps, made exclusively from whole cow's milk. Its identity, however, develops elsewhere, inside pits excavated in the ground where it matures for at least three months. Within these rocky cavities, aromas and scents evolve.

During this phase, the cheese also develops the paste, “Rocciosa”, which characterizes it. Once extracted, the product is taken to Croce dello Schioppo, where it will complete its maturation journey.

At the Corrado Benedetti facilities, the wheels of Roccioso cheese reach their peak aromaticity, completing their cycle and becoming a definitive author's product.
