Review of igourmet Formaggio del Cucina Gift Box - 2 lbs.

I ordered thei gift for my husband who is an avid cheese lover.I actually intended to order form an Italian Store that specializes in cheese, but they were unable to deliver due to the warm weather.This product came fully packaged in a cooler with ice packs and arrived within 3 days of ordering.The gift box itslef was also a nice presentation and needless to say, the cheese was delicious!Four nice size pieces of authentic italin cheeses, individually vacuum packed.They went great with Chianti!

Product Description
This assortment offers an introduction to Italy's most famous staple cheeses that are essential to creating a good Italian meal. All of these cheeses are fantastic on their own but also add a special dimension to everything from pastas to risottos, to gratins, vegetable dishes, and salads. Pecorino Romano Bronzetto is made from sheep's milk and aged over a year. Hard and dense, it is salty and tangy with a sharp spicy finish(0.5 lbs.). Provolone Piccante is mozzarella's older brother. Aged over 9 months and made from cow's milk, it is sharp and spicy with a smooth finish(0.5 lbs.). Parmigiano Reggiano is made from raw cow's milk and aged for over 18 months. Full flavored and nutty with a wonderful grainy texture(0.5 lbs.). Grana Padano Stravecchio Oro del Tempo is made from raw cow's milk and aged for over 22 months. Similar to Parmigiano Reggiano, it has an aged grainy texture, and nutty flavor. It has an amazing depth of flavor with sweet, fruity undertones(0.5 lbs.). Let the cheese come to room temperature before serving. Packaged in an attractive box ready for gifting. Please note that any item temporarily out of stock will be substituted with a similar item of equal or greater value.
