Zefferina, a feminine blue cheese, elegant, beautiful to look at, as if dressed in a refined golden gown, one of those that you turn to look at as it passes by because of its charm. This cheese with its changeable and pleasantly fresh character, but also persistent and enveloping, almost seems to be no longer a cheese, but a gastronomic preparation; in other words, we go beyond the concept of cheese refinement.

It is a cheese whose name also hides the true meaning of what we wanted to represent, that is, it is a CUDDLE of pleasure, a break, a concession to a moment of abandonment with a dessert or we could also define it as a "non-cheese" for meditation.


Externally it is glazed with milk chocolate together with grated coconut and dehydrated pomegranate seeds, inside we find a spicy blue cow's milk cheese, with a compact structure that has been previously refined with green apple liqueur. The contrast between the sweetness of the chocolate, the acidity of the liqueur and the spicy and salty of the blue is decisive and impetuous, given that it is very intense, decidedly savoury, with lactic, animal and vegetal sensations that blend with the fruitiness of the apple and the coconut together with the melting sensation of the chocolate.
