Today’s Occelli cheese pairing is Testun al Malto d’Orzo e Whiskey, with Speck(Surryano ham goes great, too!). Made with goat and cow milk, each wheel is coated with barley malt and whiskey after a lengthy maturation period.
Despite an aroma delightfully reminiscent of alcohol, this cheese has a very balanced flavor profile with a sweet opening, citric middle and a pleasing, mellow finish.
A unique cheese with a strong and complex fragrance.

For a smoky-themed trifecta, call a few friends over on a cold night, serve up a wedge of this cheese with a heap of thinly sliced speck, and enjoy both alongside a little dram of whiskey!
