Taleggio is a semi-soft, washed-rind cheese made from cow's milk, originating from the Val Taleggio region in Lombardy, Italy. It has a creamy texture and a thin, edible rind with a pinkish-orange hue. The cheese is known for its strong aroma, but its flavor is surprisingly mild, with fruity and tangy notes.
Auricchio cheese was founded by Gennaro Auricchio in 1877 in San Giuseppe Vesuviano, near Naples, Italy. The brand has become synonymous with high-quality.
