Antani is a unique and exceptional semi-hard cow's milk cheese produced by De' Magi. It is matured for a minimum of six months in caves, where it develops a delightful balance of flavors. The cheese is made from milk sourced from cows grazing above 1200 meters in the mountains, giving it a clean, aromatic profile that is present in its taste.


With a firm, compact texture, Antani features a distinctive semi-hard paste and a slight graininess. Its flavor is a blend of medium sweetness, mild saltiness, and a slight acidity, with a smooth, slightly adhesive texture. The cheese has an aroma of melted butter, stable animals, nuts, flowers, and herbs.
