Toma di Capra

Aged pure goat milk cheese, hard paste, with a wrinkled, non-edible grey-white rind.

Intense, bold, and savory flavor, with pleasantly spicy notes on the finish, a direct result of sixty days of slow maturation.

For those seeking depth rather than delicacy.

Toma di Capra is recognizable by its hard, wrinkled, grey-white rind, which visually reflects the sixty days of slow maturation.

Well-defined goat notes intertwine with hints of mature hay and undergrowth in an intense, complex profile that requires chewing.

The flavor is savory and bold, with a pleasantly spicy finish—a direct result of prolonged aging. It is the most complex cheese in the goat milk range, excellent grated over pasta or polenta, or shaved over risotto.
