Tasting Diagram

Sensory Qualities

Appearance

Cerrato Umami has a firm and compact interior texture, with light yellow tones resulting from the delicate blend of the milks (cow’s and sheep’s milk) native to the Cerrato region. When this cheese is cut, it has unevenly distributed eyes of varying sizes.

Taste

Cerrato Umami is a cheese with a very “personal” flavour profile, with notable umami nuances in the aftertaste. With a slightly low acidity, it has a marked balance of sweet and salty nuances. An elegant and full option for those who want to enjoy eating cheese.

Smell

It has a very complete profile in intensity and complexity of aromas. The blend of milks gives rise to notes reminiscent of butter, as well as slightly toasted and animal hints.

Touch

It is a product with an unctuous texture, but with slightly rough nuances due to its ripening. It has some flexibility once cut.

Recommendations

Serving Suggestions

Consume at an optimal temperature of 16ºC, open at least 20 minutes before consumption and leaving it at room temperature to enjoy all its aroma and flavour.
