Formaticum Cheese Paper —€” Because 'cheese is alive'

Cheese is alive —€” preserving its life and taste is the goal of storage

The amazing diversity of cheeses comes from the wide range of environments and variety of maturation processes employed by cheese makers and affineurs.

The great variety of cheese flavors, aromas and textures are due to the interaction of many different cultures, bacteria and molds with milk solids.

Cheese has a finite life —€” born at the time of production, a cheese matures to its prime ripeness when its flavor is perfect for eating.

Proper storage and handling can prolong a cheese's life.

Once past its prime, cheese dies.
