The aromatic analysis should highlight the typical notes. of leather, undergrowth, truffle and smoked ".

The proceeds from the auction will be donated to two solidarity projects promoted by the association 'Aiutiamo il mondo' of Father Marco Canovi, protagonist of various humanitarian activities in Uganda and 'Mama Sofia', founded by Zakia Seddiki, wife of the late ambassador to Congo, Luca Athanasius.



The form will be on display at the International Cheese Festival and the World Cheese Awards to be held in Oviedo, Spain, from 3 to 6 November 2021. (ANSA).
