Hailing from Lombardy in northern Italy, the Mauri Taleggio has a similar consistency to oozy Camembert at room temperature. Taleggio has a creamy, soft texture and a pungent aroma. The flavour is generally described as fruity, slightly salty, and sometimes with a hint of mushrooms or earthiness. The taste intensifies as the cheese matures. Taleggio is a versatile cheese and can be eaten on it’s own, or used in a variety of dishes. It melts well, making it ideal for pizzas, pasta dishes, or on toasted bread. It pairs well with medium-bodied red wines, aromatic whites, and artisan beers
The Mauri family have been crafting cheese in Valsassina—known as the “Valley of Cheese”—since 1920. Using creamy, fresh local milk, their flagship Taleggio and Gorgonzola cheeses take full advantage of maturation in silence and darkness of the valley’s astonishing natural caves. There, master cheesemakers turn and test each individual cheese as it ripens in the cool and stable temperatures and high humidity essential for drawing out every flavour nuance. Buy the Mauri Taleggio for the romance, keep buying it for the quality of long and faithful Italian cheesemaking tradition embodied in every Mauri Formaggi product.
