Notes: This is the best cheese I have ever eaten. Imagine if it were proper to eat fresh butter. Then if that butter had a smooth, spreadable, but cohesive paste. That only begins to describe this cheese. I don't know how the Gritti brothers have created such a delectable cheese, but you should probably go get some, NOW. I may have already bought the whole wheel from my Wegman's. Just saying...
