Italian Cheese Collection

Quick Overview:

I formaggi italiani, our first love and where it all started! Di Bruno Bros. was the very first to carry Parmigiano Reggiano, Pecorino Romano and aged Asiago in Philadelphia. With the Italian Cheese Collection we are still bringing you the finest Italian cheeses, hand-selected by our certified cheese professionals. *Cheese board, grapes, and utensils not included.

Includes:
  • Auricchio Stravecchio – Made with the well guarded "secret Auricchio Extra-Sharp rennet," Auricchio provolone is seriously sharp and one of the world's most famous and favorite cheeses. Though aged for three years, it maintains a surprisingly creamy texture.

  • Sottocenere al Tartufo – Fontina-like in texture, with no lingering air of funk. The rind is imbued with cinnamon, clove and other warming spices, whose earthy subtleties beautifully adorn the truffles throughout.

  • Asiago Stravecchio – Asiago is a delightful medium-aged cheese exhibiting tropical fruit notes (primarily pineapple with hints of guava) and a savoriness reminiscent of Vietnamese grilled pork. This is a cheese that eats like a meal. Rich and satisfying, it hits on all of the scientific labels for taste.

  • Moliterno Bianco Sardo – Moliterno is a classic example of small form Italian Pecorino. The tiny wheels are placed in hot whey to cook for about fifteen minutes, then the cheese is rubbed with olive oil to prevent cracking and aged on reeds for a minimum of six months. The result is a fatty, lush paste with a rugged rind that transcends time and place. Yes, it's that good!

  • Pantaleo – Pantaleo is a rare 'caprino' (goat's milk cheese) made in a land dominated by sheep's milk production. A semi-firm cheese, it still finishes smooth, with a touch of spice reminiscent of smoky white pepper.

  • Di Bruno Bros Salami (8 oz) - Meats made the authentic way. Our recipes and process stay true to traditional Italian salami, are produced with regional Italian spices and the old-world technique of slow air-curing for at least 45 days

*On occasion product substitutions of equal or higher value may occur.

Serves 8-10

Cheese board, plate and knife are sold separately.

shipped with care

Your order is guaranteed to be handled with care and shipped with an eye toward ensuring the products arrive as fresh as possible. All of our perishables are packed in insulated, heat-resistant packaging with safe, re-usable ice packs. If you should also order dry goods, we neatly pack them around the other materials, enclosed in a sturdy, corrugated container.

It generally takes one business day to receive and process your order. Shipping speed selected at checkout applies to the time in transit only. The delivery clock starts once the package is picked up by our carriers, not once you submit your order, and there are times when our fulfillment team may hold certain orders to process and ship after the weekend in order to ensure product viability. Please note processing times may be extended during the holiday season.
