PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Semi-hard sheep cheese with black truffles – A delicacy for true gourmets
This semi-hard full-fat sheep cheese with truffles is the result of traditional Istrian production and a modern interpretation of premium flavors. Made from pasteurized sheep's milk and enriched with 3 percent black truffles (Tuber aestivum Vitt.), this cheese offers a luxurious combination of the earthy aroma of truffles and the full, piquant flavor of mature sheep cheese.
The cheese is ideal for serving:
-
with Istrian cured meats such as prosciutto, sausages, or pancetta
-
with full-bodied red wines (Teran, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon)
-
on meat and cheese platters
-
grated over pasta or risotto for extra flavor
-
as a special component in gourmet burgers or sandwiches
Each slice of this cheese contains pieces of real black truffle, further highlighting the authenticity and exclusivity of the product. The truffles in the cheese not only enrich its flavor but also provide an elegant aroma that impresses even the most discerning palates.
The cheese is aged under controlled conditions to achieve an ideal texture – semi-hard and pliable, with a fine grain and persistent aroma. Thanks to the high-quality sheep's milk, the product has a high milk fat content in dry matter (minimum 45 percent), which further enhances its creaminess and flavor.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions.
What are Truffles?
Truffles are underground fungi known for their intense and unique aroma and flavor. They grow underground, often in symbiosis with trees like oak, hazelnut, and hornbeam. They are highly valued in gastronomy and considered one of the world’s most luxurious delicacies.
What is the Difference between White and Black Truffles?
The white truffle (Tuber Magnatum Pico) is considered the most prized due to its strong aroma and rarity. It is best consumed raw, grated over a fresh dish. Black truffles (such as Tuber Melanosporum and Tuber Aestivum) have a somewhat milder aroma but are versatile and used both fresh and cooked.
How to Store Fresh Truffles?
Fresh truffles are best stored in the refrigerator, wrapped in a paper towel inside an airtight container. The towel should be changed daily to prevent moisture buildup. It is recommended to consume them within a few days for optimal flavor.
