Toma Macagn is a typical Valsesia cheese. It is produced with whole raw cow’s milk; this typical cheese is obtained after each milking, that is, twice a day. The milk milked in the mountain pastures, perfumed by mountain herbs, must be transformed immediately to obtain a product that can be preserved for a long time, which is then taken to the cellar for maturing, which varies from 30 to 60 days. Once the maturing period is over, only a part of the cheeses continues the evolution that will lead them to further define their organoleptic characteristics. The selected cheeses are transferred to the aging cellars where they remain for 60 to 90 days.

Description
INGREDIENTS: Raw whole MILK, salt, rennet
Fun fact: The production area of this toma is located in the north-eastern sector of Piedmont starting from the Monte Rosa massif, sloping down into the valleys of Alagna and Rassa. Two similar valleys with high-altitude mountain pastures where in August the pastures reach up to 2500 meters above sea level.
Raw milk cheeses are the absolute excellence of the dairy world. In this case, the milk is not filtered and is not heat-treated. Raw milk cheeses are therefore extremely rich in vitamins (especially A, C and D) and proteins. Easy to digest and rich in nutritional properties. Furthermore, in terms of organoleptic properties, they are much tastier and particularly aromatic.
The consumption of "raw milk" cheeses by preschool children, pregnant women, the elderly and immunocompromised people should be avoided.
