Capritilla Goat Cheese is a distinctive cheese line from the Botalla brand, embodying the essence of the cheesemaking art of the Piedmont region, Italy. This is a “Toma” style cheese made from 100% pure goat’s milk, processed according to traditional artisanal methods to preserve the most natural flavors. Unlike the stereotype that goat cheese often has an overpowering odor, Capritilla captivates diners with its superb balance and subtlety.

The product belongs to the semi-cooked cheese category with a rustic rind encasing a soft interior. Capritilla stands out with its straw-white color and tiny eyes. Thanks to a standard aging and fermentation process, the cheese achieves an ideal smoothness along with a mild, elegant flavor, delivering a luxurious and distinct taste experience.

Capritilla is the perfect choice to enrich party menus, from appetizer cheese platters to culinary combinations, bringing the flavors of the Italian mountains to your table.
