Arrigoni Battista's Rossini is a blue-veined cheese made from cow's milk that is distinguished by its unique ripening process. The cheeses are immersed in the marc of raisins from Pantelleria, an island with a long tradition of producing fine wines.
This innovative practice combines creativity and tradition, creating an extraordinary cheese with an intense and complex flavour. The marbling gives the cheese a distinctive note and a pleasant piquancy, which balances perfectly with the sweetness of the raisin marc. A true delicacy that would have been appreciated by Rossini, the famous Italian composer known for his gluttony, to whom Arrigoni Battista's cheese was dedicated.
To fully appreciate the unique qualities of Rossini cheese, we recommend pairing it with mountain chestnut honey, which lends a sweet and earthy note, or with bitter orange marmalade and Mediterranean figs, which add a fruity sweetness and a touch of freshness to the tasting. These combinations enhance the flavours of the cheese, providing an unforgettable taste experience.
