General Information
Mozzarella di Bufala is a fresh, drawn-curd cheese, made directly from whole cow-buffalo's milk carefully selected to ensure freshness and wholesomeness. The taste of true Mozzarella di Bufala is pleasantly sourish with a faint mossy smell. The mozzarella is porcelain white in colour, spherical and a very thin glossy rind. When cut across, a whitish whey smelling of milk ferments oozes out, and the texture is stringy.

Pairings
Mozzarella di Bufala is a great cheese to have on its own because of its flavour and texture. It is also good to use in a salad, with pasta, and on a pizza. It’s perfect part of the traditional Caprese salad, served with tomatoes, basil and extra virgin olive oil.
