Product Description

The name of this Southern Italian cheese translates to ‘horse cheese’ referring to the tradition of tying two cheeses together with string and hanging them over a stick to mature which resembled a person sitting on a horse or perhaps the bags often used to carry goods on horseback. The curd is next hand-stretched which allows it to be moulded into the desired shape, in this case a moneybag.

After aging, a gentle smoking over traditional Beechwood imparts a smoky flavour and a golden colour to each cheese.

This aged mozzarella has a medium-firm texture like provolone, a smoky flavour and salty finish. Enjoy grilled for antipasto.
