Cheese removed from the sack and ready to be labelled and sold
The village of Sogliano al Rubicone
|
The name of "IL FOSSA" from Sogliano al Rubicone derives from the fact that this cheese is allowed to ripe in special underground pits (in Italian "fosse") probably dating back to the Middle Ages. These pits, dug out of tufa, can be found in the village of Sogliano al Rubicone belonging to the Province of Forli'-Cesena and bordering the territories of the Provinces of Rimini and Pesaro-Urbino. These three provinces represent the typical production area of "Il Fossa" cheese.
