Toma del Lait Brusc or Bianca Alpina is a raw, semi-skimmed cow’s milk cheese, medium-long aged, cylindrical in shape with flat sides and straight sides.
Weight from 3.0 to 6.0 kg. Smooth or slightly irregular rind, grey or slightly orange in colour, tending to become more intense as the cheese matures. The paste is firm, chalky and crumbly, without holes, and varies in colour from ivory white to slightly straw-coloured.
Pleasant flavour with a more or less intense acidity depending on the maturing period.
