| Description | Cheese produced with goat's milk and aged with an interesting combination of Vermouth and Tonka bean |
|---|---|
| Appearance | Amber in colour with evident dark streaks of tonka bean |
| Taste | Very fragrant and aromatic; the perfume makes you travel between fresh notes of cardamom, star anise and fresh herbs, and warmer notes of honey and vanilla; in the mouth its elegance emerges: the qualitative base of the cheese gives a spicy persistence with light notes of goat milk |
| Maturing | At least 4 months |
| Curiosity | This cheese was born from a refinement project developed by Erika, daughter of Emanuela, together with Riccardo of PER Bottega & Cheese Bar. Capra Tonka and Vermouth won the prestigious San Lucio Trophy in June 2021. |
| Our selection | Emanuela Perenzin is the fourth generation of a family that has been producing cheese since 1898. A reality that for over 120 years tells a cross- section of Venetian dairy crafts with a strong talent for experimentation and innovation. Today Emanuela leads with grit the family business, in which he was already a child, flanked by children who represent the fifth generation: Matteo takes care of the production while Erika follows the local PER Bottega & Cheese Bar and the shop of the dairy |

Latteria Perenzin - San Pietro di Feletto (TV) - Veneto
Why we chose them
Emanuela Perenzin represents the fourth generation of a family that has been making cheese since 1898.
The dairy was founded by Domenico Perenzin together with his sons - including Angelo, Emanuela's grandfather - in the village of Tarzo, a few
kilometres from the current premises, which were built in 1958 and renovated in 1997. The dairy became the 'Premiata Latteria Perenzi'' thanks to
grandfather Angelo, who was awarded a gold medal at the Salon des Arts Ménagers in Brussels way back in 1933.
Today, Emanuela runs the family business with determination and enthusiasm, having been involved in it from a very young age; she is now
supported by her children, who represent the fifth generation: Matteo oversees production, whilst Erika manages the PER Cheese Bar and the dairy
shop.
A business that for over 120 years has offered a glimpse into Venetian artisanal cheese-making, with a strong focus on experimentation and
innovation.
