Capriccio

Capriccio is a cheese that enchants with its delicate and slightly tangy flavour, its extraordinary softness, and the complete absence of rind, which leaves full room for the purity of the milk it is made from. This fresh cheese is the result of a dairy tradition carried on for four generations, now embodied in the meticulous manual processing performed by our expert cheesemakers. The essence of Capriccio is milk sourced from local farms no more than 30 km from our dairy.

Deepening

Capriccio is a spreadable cheese characterised by its slightly tangy note that enhances its freshness. The history of spreadable cheeses is a journey through time and culinary traditions, a tale that unites the passion for authentic flavours with creativity in the cheesemaking art. It all began centuries ago, when rural communities, seeking to preserve excess milk, began creating cheeses that could be stored for long periods. This gave rise to spreadable cheeses, made by adding salt and other spices, and sometimes through fermentation, to ensure long preservation and a pleasant taste experience. In recent decades, spreadable cheeses have seen a renaissance, becoming increasingly popular among consumers for their versatility and delicious flavour. Today, they are available in a wide range of varieties and flavours combined with many ingredients, such as herbs, pepper, olives, and even fruit. Our Capriccio is a tasty blank canvas that you can enrich with other ingredients or enjoy for its clean flavour.
