The star of the Piedmont table since the Middle Ages, toma Piemontese DOP is produced and aged in settings of excellence: the territory of the provinces of Cuneo, Turin, Biella, Novara, Verbania, Vercelli and in some municipalities in the provinces of Asti and Alessandria, where the knowledge of master cheesemakers is handed down from generation to generation. Production is made exclusively with cow's milk from local herds dedicated to typical Piedmontese breeds. The cows are fed mainly on fresh fodder and hay, respecting tradition and ensuring milk that is rich in flavor, balanced and authentically linked to the territory.

How it's made	Toma Piemontese PDO is processed following ancient procedures: the milk is gently heated and coagulated with natural rennet, then the curds are broken and collected in large fascere that give the traditional cylindrical shape. After manual salting, the cheeses are left to mature in cool, humid environments. The minimum ripening period is 60 days for wheels weighing more than 6 kg and at least 15 days for smaller sizes (A and B), allowing the cheese to be enjoyed in all its variations, from young to more mature.

Combinations

Lactic and slightly herbaceous hints emerge on the nose, with references to the essences of Piedmont pastures. In the mouth, the whole-milk variant expresses a sweet and delicate flavor, while the semi-fat version is fuller, richer and more harmonious. Perfect at the table with rustic bread, chestnut honey, mustard or paired with Piedmontese wines such as Barbera, Dolcetto or Nebbiolo. Also excellent melted for typical dishes such as polenta concia, fondues or risottos, as well as to enrich mixed boards and regional appetizers.
