Gorgonzola Piccante DOP Blue Cheese from Germany

Gorgonzola Piccante is a sharp, crumbly Italian blue-veined cheese aged longer for intense flavor, made from cow's milk with natural blue mold veins. Classified under HTS 0406.90.74.00 as 'other' containing blue-veined cheese, it avoids specific blue-mold quotas due to its non-Stilton, non-Roquefort status. The DOP designation confirms authentic blue-veined processing.
