The Basajo is the result of extraordinary cheese craftsmanship, refined with the prestigious Zibibbo raisin wine from Pantelleria, making it an unparalleled delicacy.

This creamy blue cheese, made with raw sheep’s milk following the style of the famous French Roquefort, captivates the senses with its complexity. After maturing in the must of Pantelleria’s raisin wine, the Basajo transforms into a culinary masterpiece, enriched with sweetened blonde raisins.

To ensure maximum freshness and preserve the aromas infused in the cheese, the Basajo is carefully coated with aluminum, maintaining its integrity without forming a rind, and vacuum-packed to retain the delightful Pantelleria raisin wine.

The taste of Basajo is a symphony of pleasure and complexity, with notes of dried fruit, cashews, almonds, walnuts, and a enveloping sweetness of wildflower honey and acacia. The creamy texture and delicate veining make it a unique experience that caresses the palate.

Surprise your customers by presenting the Basajo as an elegant alternative to the classic dessert, to be savored with a spoon or accompanied by a fresh fruit salad. Bring the excellence of an authentic gastronomic masterpiece to your cheese counters for your customers to enjoy.
