World Cheese Awards - Super Gold

2023, 2021

Basajo is a unique type of cheese produced by La Casearia Carpenedo, an Italian cheese company. This cheese is made from pasteurized sheep's milk and is known for its distinct character. It undergoes a maturation process in Passito di Pantelleria, a sweet Sicilian wine, which imparts a unique, aromatic flavor profile to the cheese.


The rind has a notable golden hue, and the interior is creamy and semi-soft, offering a balanced taste with hints of fruit and honey, attributable to the wine infusion. (No data)
