In 1914, Arrigoni Battista began making traditional cheeses following old family recipes from Lombardy. Gaining widespread popularity for their taleggio, Arrigoni Battista started working on other local cheeses. One of those was Gorgonzola Dolce, a perfect cheese for either cooking or snacking. Gorgonzola Dolce is softer and creamier than its older sister, Gorgonzola Piccante. Having been washed repeatedly with a brine during its three months of cave-aging, Gorgonzola Dolce develops an aromatic buttery yellow paste shot with greenish mold. This blue cow's milk cheese is rich and spicy with fresh notes of grass in the finish.
