Gorgonzola is a cheese present all over the world and an expression of Made in Italy par excellence. It was produced for the first time in the late 9th century, near Milan, in the town of Gorgonzola, from which it takes its name. Initially it was called "stracchino verde", because it was made with the milk of the cows "stracche", that is "tired" that from the Prealpi descended to the lowland to repose.
We have our own selection of Gorgonzola, called Verde Crema which, for more than 50 years, is highly appreciated and sought after by consumers.
