Smooth when younger. Dry and flinty when well aged Pantaleo always finished smooth with a touch of spice reminiscent of smoky white pepper.

The Flavor Experience

The goat's diet and maker's craft blend to provide Pantaleo its outstanding flavor. It comes on gentle and mild but lingers as it unfolds into a long, nutty, peppery finish. This cheese pairs extremely well with fresh shellfish such as oysters, shrimp, and crabs.

The Story
