Gorgonzola Dolce Blue Cheese Portions from Japan

Gorgonzola Dolce portions are soft, sweet younger blue-veined cheese cut from larger wheels, with mild blue mold from Italian cow's milk. Under HTS 0406.90.74.00 as 'other' blue-veined, it differs from aged Piccante or quota Italian-types. Pre-portioned for retail distinguishes its processed nature.
