Bruschetta Fresh Cheese 100g - Herb & Sun-Dried Tomato Coating | 100% Tochigi Milk

Looking for an appetizer that needs no cooking? Tired of plain cheese? Want something colorful that pairs perfectly with wine?

Meet “Bruschetta” – the new fresh cheese from Ohtawara Cheese Station. Inspired by Italian bruschetta, it’s ready to slice and serve. No seasoning needed, it’s a complete dish on its own.

Tasting Notes | Smooth, Moist & Aromatic – A Feast in One Bite

The beauty of Bruschetta lies in the harmony between the cheese and its coating.

Texture:

Incredibly smooth, moist and creamy. Made only with fresh Tochigi raw milk and salt, it melts softly on the tongue with a gentle milky sweetness.

Aroma & Flavor:

Coated in a fragrant mix of basil, herbs, sun-dried tomato and a hint of garlic. Each bite releases layers of flavor – the umami of milk, the sweet acidity of tomato, and the fresh aroma of herbs.

Presence:

Fully seasoned and ready to eat. Even on its own, it has a strong, satisfying presence as a main appetizer.

How to Enjoy | 4 Ways – From Chef's Recommendation

As It Is – The Star Appetizer:

Simply slice it thick. The herbs and tomato are already balanced, so it shines without anything else. Perfect with wine or sake.

Maker's Recommendation – With Light, Fruity Wine:

Pair with a light, fruity wine – Sauvignon Blanc, unoaked Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, or a chilled Lambrusco. The fruitiness lifts the herbs and lets you taste every ingredient: cheese, tomato, basil and garlic, one by one.

On Toasted Bread – True Bruschetta Style:

Place on lightly toasted baguette or campaigne. The herb-infused oil melts into the bread for an authentic Italian-style bruschetta. Great for breakfast or brunch.

With Japanese Sake:

Because it’s a delicate fresh cheese with low salt, it pairs beautifully with chilled Junmai Ginjo or sake with bright acidity. The herbs don't clash – they cleanse the palate.

At Ohtawara Cheese Station, we use only 100% fresh raw milk from cows raised in the rich nature of Tochigi, Japan.

For Bruschetta, we keep it simple: only raw milk and salt for the cheese itself, to protect its moist, fresh texture. Then we carefully coat it by hand with a house-blended herb mix and sun-dried tomatoes.
No synthetic additives. We prioritize freshness above all, keeping the time from production to shipping as short as possible to deliver the aroma and color at its peak.
