San Pietro in Beeswax is a high quality Veneto cheese, made with selected cow's milk from local farms, and embellished with a coating of natural beeswax that delicately envelops the rind.

Beeswax not only gives San Pietro a charming appearance, but also plays an important role in its texture and flavor. Beeswax creates a protective barrier on the rind of the cheese, keeping moisture inside and promoting even ripening. This process gives San Pietro in Beeswax a silky texture and a soft consistency that melts in the mouth.

The beeswax rind is inedible: it is recommended to carefully remove it before eating the cheese, in order to fully enjoy its soft and creamy texture, enriched by its characteristic aroma.
