    I’m using stock images but I am always on the lookout for new cheeses to try whenever I go to the store. Credit to “Cheese.com” for the cheese image and cheese facts. If any of you know some cheeses that I haven’t done yet I would love some input!

    Here is your daily cheese facts: Caprotto is a hard cheese made from goat’s milk by Casa Madaio dairy farm in Cilento, Campania, Italy. This compact, delicate flavoured cheese is made using animal rennet, salt and cooked curd cheese technique. It is aged for 3 to 12 months in the caves of Casa Madio. Depending up on aging period, the paste changes its colour from white to amber. Caprotto has a very strong aroma of roasted hazelnuts with flowery notes. The cheese pairs well with Greco di Tufo wine from Campania, Italy.

    Also as a note: I post my daily cheese here as well as in my r/dailycheese subreddit.
