Bitto DOP

The cheese is made seasonally from June to September, and usually has a deep yellow paste due to the cows’ diet of alpine grass and herbs. Intense and spicy, with a finish that has notes of walnuts, hay, and dried fruits.

Let customers speak for us
I gave the Curated Cheddar Collection to multiple people as a gift. They were blown away by the quality and how "fun" the various cheddar tastes were. I couldn't be more pleased!
Orders were delivered promptly to some very pleased friends. Great job.
The cheese of the month club is a blast. What could be more fun than three mystery delicious cheeses arriving at your door?!?
I am a member of the Classic Cheese of the Month Club at Capella. It is a great way to sample various cheeses...many that you may never have tried. Each cheese is accompanied by production, taste and flavor information. It even comes with a wine pairing. My first month included a Castelinhos, which quickly became one of my favorites. This month included an Iberica Mezcla, which also is now a favorite. If you love cheese, this is a great way to sample various cheeses from around the world.
I set up the Cheese of the month club as a birthday gift for someone. I was first planning on doing it for 3 months. But recipient loved it so much & said it is the best gift they ever received (their spouse is jealous they didn't think of it), we decided keep it going. Mainly because they are so special and do so much for us, but also because I know if we quit, their spouse would probably start it up and we couldn't do it again next year! LOL
Wonderful company with the finest cheeses and other exceptional products.
I have to admit that I'm a TRUE cheese fan. I could never be a vegan because a life without cheese isn't worth it, in my opinion. I read reviews about Capella Cheese before making my first purchase and was not disappointed. This gruyere is the best I've ever had! It's the perfect balance of bold and delicate. It's definitely one for a true cheese connoisseur. I highly recommend it!
Outstanding flavor. Smooth and easily pairs with a variety of other foods and drinks.
The quality and freshness of Capella cheeses are excellent . Much better than what you can get in a grocery store.
Just the right combination of zesty citrus and herbs to add to any dish. It brightened my roasted chicken and was great with my sautéed chicken!
Nice variety of world class cheese. Quite expensive, but there is no question regarding the quality. Nicely packaged and delivered promptly!
I'm a huge mimolette fan, and this one is perfectly aged, with delicious flavors. Combined with Capella's plain crackers is perfection!
I have grown tired of boring store bought cheeses, but no longer!
My first order of Capella arrived perfectly packaged, still very cold.
My first bite of some real Cheddar was so satisfying that I nearly ate the whole block I had bought. Finally, after years of dried out flavorless parmigiana, our pasta dishes taste so much better with the Parmigiano Reggiano cheese. I am already thinking about what to order next.
