US-based artisan and premium cheese producer Sartori has introduced Chai BellaVitano cheese at the Winter Fancy Food Show held in San Francisco.
Chai BellaVitano is the newest Sartori Reserve cheese and has been in development phase for some time.
Sartori artisan master Cheesemaker Mike Matucheski said that it takes a lot of experimenting with different flavors and combinations to find the perfect blend to combine with BellaVitano Gold.
"We found that the savory notes of the chai tea rub makes for an exotic pairing with the sweet, creamy, and fruity flavors of BellaVitano," Matucheski said.
Sartori Reserve Chai BellaVitano will be available at at specialty cheese shops from 21 January 2013. It will also be available for sale on the Sartori online cheese shop.
Sartori, based in Plymouth, Wisconsin, produces artisan and premium cheese for specialty, retail, ingredient, and restaurant and food service markets.
