Blu di Bufala is a raw blue cheese made from fresh buffalo milk. Its characteristic shape is that of a parallelepiped, with a dry, ridged rind that is amber-gray in color. The pale straw-colored paste has blue veins, more or less diffuse, and some irregular cavities. The aroma is intense, with notes of ripe milk and mold. Over time, aging imparts hints of underbrush and mushroom to the cheese. The flavor is persistent and almost always sweetened by the fatty sensations typical of buffalo milk. Blu di Bufala is aged for at least 90 days, but reaches maximum sensory enjoyment with 6-month aging.
