It has a white mold crust under which there is an ash coating, visually it is very striking, due not only to its crust, but also to a line of edible ash that crosses through the center of the cheese. Aged for fifteen to twenty days. It is a cheese of intense flavor, where dairy flavors predominate with some notes of nuts. Soft paste has a pleasant contrast between the texture of the skin and the creaminess of the paste. You can buy this cheese in units of 250 - 300 grs.
