Murianeng
A large and rare mountain blue cheese made in the Upper Susa Valley, near the French border.
It is closely related to some Savoy cheeses produced just beyond the Alps, in the Maurienne Valley, hence the name Murianeg.
Its production process is similar to that of Castelmagno, but Murianeg’s texture and flavor are significantly different, due to its different origins.
The long aging process favors the development of intense, completely natural blue veining.
