PICCOLO FIORE DI BUFALA
AL TARTUFO
Perenzin Latteria
San Pietro di Feletto, Italy
With a name that translates to "little flower"—a nod
to this soft-ripened wheel's bloomy rind—you can
expect sweetness and delicacy. Hidden within the
WCA Gold winner's meltingly rich paste is a dark line
running through the interior—tiny bits of black summer
truffle added to enhance this style's naturally milky,
mushroomy profile.
BUFFALO BLUE
Shepherds Purse Cheeses Ltd.
Thirsk, UK
With six lush blue wheels in their lineup, the ladies
of Shepherd's Purse know a thing or two about
Penicillium roqueforti. Made by hand from the rich milk
of a single British herd of Italian water buffalo, WCA
Super Gold–winning Buffalo Blue lands on the more
assertive side of the flavor spectrum. It's bold and
brash enough to stand up to sweet dessert wines and
rich reds alike.
