CASARRIGONI SRL

Casarrigoni SRL produces two protected designation cheeses, Taleggio DOP and Quartirolo Lombardo DOP, within areas that together encompass over 2,800 municipalities in northern Italy. Both denominations share the Lombard soft-cheese matrix but take different paths under the cheesemaker's hands, who governs their aging on time-tested wooden boards. It is the aging process that determines the color, aroma, and character of each wheel. For Taleggio, the minimum 35 days of maturation deepen the complexity of its washed rind; for Quartirolo, timing separates the delicate acidity of the young cheese from the more pronounced flavors of a longer rest. This attention to rhythm, passed down from generation to generation and remaining largely unchanged, is what distinguishes Casarrigoni cheeses in the contemporary market. Two denominations, one unique method: allowing time, more than technique, to write the result within the rind.
