Meet Puzzone di Moena -- a much-loved Trentino mountain cheese whose name literally translates to 'big stink'.

As most cheese-lovers will understand, there's a kind of proportional relationship between pungency and deliciousness -- if you get past those reeking notes of sweaty socks and funky fermented mushrooms, you are rewarded with a mind-blowingly tasty cheese. Puzzone is no exception and its complex flavour has highlights of hazelnuts, green herbs, melted butter, a subtle spice and cured meats -- all of which intensify as the cheese matures.

Puzzone is only produced at one dairy located in the impossibly picturesque Fiemme valley and it's a must-do stop along the Dolomites Cheese Route.

A big cheesy thanks to Davide from the Caseificio Sociale Predazzo e Moena for sharing this cheese's story, and to Agritur Maso Lena for providing a tasting location and amazing farmhouse lunch.
