| Piave Vecchio All Natural (aged Over 1 Year) |
 Mature Piave or Piave vecchio ages from 120 days to 12 months and has a complex and deep flavor, with notes of pineapple, hazelnuts, and caramel. The most aged wheels of cheese are characterized by a hard and granular texture and are packed with crunchy protein crystals. In the past Piave Cheese, a traditional Italian cow's milk cheese, was produced in small batches in local dairies situated in the Piave River Valley near Venice. Today the production of Piave is made using more modern cheesemaking techniques. Yet the local cheesemakers have maintained the highest standards and continue to produce exceptional quality cheese. The flavor of this semi-hard cheese is absolutely delicious and truly reminds one of pineapple!
