The master cheese maturer's craft

THE MAGIC OF THE MATURING PROCESS

The rounds are then kept in a fermentation cellar; this is when the living organisms inside and outside the cheese flourish most. The number of milk propionibacteria increases 10,000 to 100,000 times. The final stages of the maturing process take place in a slow maturing cellar and a storage cellar, when the rounds of cheese undergo most of their physical changes.
