Complete ripening takes place after about 30/40 days. During ripening, the product becomes creamier and more flavorful. The reason for wrapping it in paper is to maintain the correct ripening of the mold. Soft cheese with a creamy and soft texture with white mold in the rind, sweet and delicate in taste.

About the company:

It all began in 1925 in a small dairy in the old town of Siena. From then on, the name Morbidi became synonymous with ""good food"" for the locals. Over the years, the Morbidi family has always been able to innovate and take on challenges.

In the 1940s, we started working with pork, followed by sheep's milk, in keeping with the oldest local traditions. Over the generations, we have evolved into a modern company that focuses on sustainability and a short supply chain, but we have never forgotten where we started: in a wonderful place that still welcomes anyone who passes through the heart of Siena.

If you are looking for a moment of culinary pleasure, Morbidi's selection of cold cuts and cheeses, accompanied by a good wine and in the company of friends, is an excellent choice.

From the very beginning, you can smell the hard work that goes into the cheeses, and when you taste the essence of the natural and selected sheep's milk, you seem to be in the typical Tuscan countryside. Enjoy the mild flavor that lingers in your mouth. If you can't get enough of a cheese, it's clear that you're enjoying a Morbidi family original, and that's where a delightful experience begins.
