Bassanese Baby – the small wheel, sweet and rounded

The wheel is round, with a hard rind; the paste is smooth and yellow, with slight rice-grain eyes.

Bastardo – a medium-aged cheese with a full flavour

It was born alongside Morlacco and owes its name to its uncertain origins in cheesemaking: a straightforward name for a no-frills cheese.

It is a full-fat, semi-hard cheese made from Italian pasteurised cow’s milk and matured for at least 90 days. The rind is hard and smooth, a deep straw yellow; the paste, compact and pale straw-coloured, has small to medium eyes, unevenly distributed.

Morlacco – the rustic jewel of Monte Grappa

The dairy calls it “the true jewel of Monte Grappa’s rustic tradition”, tied to a past of transhumance and herding, when milk had to be preserved by simple means. The cheesemaking echoes those gestures: coagulation at the milk’s original temperature, a cross cut, and slow, regular movements, as the travelling cheesemakers once did.

It is a semi-fat cheese made from Italian pasteurised whole cow’s milk, matured for 10 days. When young the paste is soft and white, with small scattered eyes; the aroma is slightly milky and distinctive, the flavour sweet, aromatic and savoury. As it matures the paste turns slightly straw-coloured and tends to become creamy, especially under the rind, and flavour and aroma grow more intense.

💡 How to enjoy it:
✔ Sliced on a cheese board
✔ With rustic bread
✔ With hot polenta
