Antiche Armonie Straw and Hay is an artisan cheese made from cow's and sheep's milk, crafted using traditional methods that enhance the authenticity of the product. After an initial aging period of at least 40 days, the cheese is matured for an additional 30 days in a terracotta jar, wrapped in straw and hay. This ancient technique infuses the cheese with intense aromas and a natural fragrance reminiscent of the countryside, creating a unique and rustic tasting experience, perfect for those who love genuine flavors. Milk: Mixed cow and sheep. Organoleptic Characteristics Appearance: Thick and rustic rind, embellished with traces of straw and hay. Compact paste of an intense straw yellow. Aroma: Intense and natural scent, with pronounced herbal notes of fresh hay and a hint of milk that completes the bouquet. Flavor: Rich and aromatic, with an aftertaste of dried herbs and a sweetness from the milk that balances the rustic notes. Texture: Semi-hard, slightly crumbly, with a full texture that softens in the mouth. Diameter of the wheel: 7 cm. Recommended Pairings Honey: Honeydew Honey. The honeydew honey, with its slightly resinous and sweet notes, perfectly harmonizes with the rustic character and herbal notes of straw and hay, creating an enveloping contrast that intensifies the tasting experience. Pearls: Pearls with White Condiment and Truffle. The pearls with white condiment and truffle add aromatic depth that enhances the earthy and rich notes of the cheese, offering a sophisticated and intense pairing. Jam: Onion Jam and "Balsamic Vinegar of Modena IGP". The onion jam, with its caramelized sweetness and acidic note of balsamic vinegar, perfectly balances the herbal nuances and sweetness of the milk, creating an enveloping and decisive pairing. Gelatin: Raspberry Gelatin. The tart freshness of raspberry gelatin adds a lively and fruity touch, creating an interesting balance with the hay notes and the rustic profile of the cheese. Cream: Cream with Balsamic Vinegar of Modena IGP and Truffle. This cream, with its rich flavor of balsamic vinegar and truffle, enriches the cheese with a deep aromatic profile, complementing the intense and earthy taste of the cheese. Pure: Wild Blueberries. Wild blueberries, with their slightly tart and sweet flavor, accompany the rustic notes of the cheese, adding a fruity and aromatic contrast that balances the herbal nuances. Traditional: Savòr Modenese. The Savòr Modenese, with its rich and complex flavor, enhances the rustic and earthy notes of the cheese, providing an authentic and traditional pairing. Beer: Splendidly pairs with an Amber Ale or a wheat beer, whose round body completes the rustic and earthy notes of the cheese. Wines: Perfect with a light and fruity red wine, such as a Bardolino or a Dolcetto d'Alba, which enhance the aromatic profile. Bread: Ideal with rustic bread or rosemary focaccia, which elevate the authentic character of the cheese. Other Pairings: Excellent with dried fruits, such as walnuts and almonds, or paired with aged cured meats for an authentic and flavor-rich experience. Recommended Knife: For this cheese, a serrated knife for semi-hard cheeses is recommended, allowing for precise cutting and enhancing the slightly crumbly texture.
