From the farm "La Grancia di Sant' Angelo" in the mountains of Abruzzo and produced by Claudio Di Domenico.

This exceptional caciocavallo and winner of many awards, get's its rich flavor from this rare breed (Red Cow), originally used to produce Parmesan Reggiano. Almost extinct by the late 1980's, the ancient breed is a low yielding milk producer with a very high butterfat and protein content.

Aged for 90 days or more, it is rich and buttery with the grassy flavor of the fields.
