Rubbed lovingly with dark slashings of balsamic vinegar and soaked in crushed juniper berries, this semi-hard sheep milk cheese comes from the Italian province of Emilia-Romagna. The flavors of the balsamic vinegar and juniper seeps into the bone-white paste and give the salty cheese a sweet finish of juiciness.
