(Note: I am cheating by reposting a tasting from the Golden Age, when we could afford such cheeses, i.e. August ’08. We’ve had it since, and it was still excellent.).
Il forteto cacio di bosco al tartufo
When a cheese is $31.99 a pound, 0.14 lb. of it had better go a long way.
We ate this cheese in tiny flakes with Acme bread and salumi from Boccalone (the orange and wild fennel salami, and the Soppressata).
A single crumbled piece tastes like dark underbrush and autumn rain, so I’d have to say yes, Virginia, it goes a long way.
