The Monte Veronese is since 1996 a DOP cheese with two different qualities: full cream milk and mountain milk. Both qualities are made from half-raw milk.
The Monte Veronese from whole milk is less long ripened and has a minimum aging period of 25 days. But it tastes best from the 40th day of ripening.
The Monte Veronese from mountain milk is the traditional version, which is made according to tradition of the old fashioned dairies. Although this cheese has a very high quality, it is one of the lesser known Italian cheeses.
