Crafted by Fattorie Fiandino, Ottavio alla Birra is a unique artisanal cheese made by adding artisanal beer to raw cow’s milk just before curdling with vegetable rennet derived from thistle flowers.
The cheese is then rubbed with the same beer mixture, creating a dark rind that enhances its flavor. With a complex aroma featuring hints of coffee, cocoa, and toasted notes, its taste is smooth and sweet, balanced by the malt and a slight bitterness from the thistle. A truly distinctive and refined cheese experience.
