We @formaggiastic often hear from people that they “don’t like” goat cheese. The reasons for this in unison seem to be; “it tastes like nothing” vs. “it tastes like goat”
So, since goat cheeses seem to face the same prejudices as fish, we decided that the first post of our *springy goat* May series should be an introduction to goat cheeses by means of variety.
Spring is on the jump and with it are goats and their cheeses!
We @formaggiastic are big fans of fresh as well as aged goat cheeses and over the course of the upcoming weeks will take you on a deep dive into the world of these white beauties. But before we start with mouth-watering examples, here some basic facts about goats, their milk, and their cheeses.
Due to the current situation this event had to be canceled.

Gustav and I can’t wait to return to our beloved Piedmont and were super happy to find this gem at @Tutta Posto last week. – L’ ´Ottavio (alla birra scura) by Fattorie Fiandino from Villafalletto about one hour south of Turin.
Gustav says „Happy Surf-Turf Christmas“ to all of us and no rating‘s on him today.
I say – Gustav rates 1000/10 and we both wish you a relaxed, safe and extra cheeseful Christmas! 🎄🧀🧀🐾🐺🍾
