Taleggio PDO
A classic washed-rind cheese from Lombardy with a fine, soft, naturally pink rind dusted with light sage and grey-green mould.
Tasting notes
Softest just under the rind and crumbly at the centre, white to pale yellow. Sweet and slightly acidic, sometimes with a hint of truffle, and a distinctive aroma.
