Italian Cheese Collection
Conjure the Italian countryside with this collection of three old-world cheeses, all made in small batches. Hand picked for us by the Italian cheese specialists at Fresca Italia, our collection includes something for everyone: La Losetta: Aromas of fresh milk, herbs and hay permeate this semisoft pasteurized sheep-cow milk cheese from the Cuneo area of Piedmont. A bloomy rind and a creamy texture set it apart from other young cheeses. Brunet: A dense, cake-like, creamy pasteurized goat's milk cheese from Piedmont, featuring a bloomy rind and a robust, milky flavor that make it a great match for sparkling wines. Pecorino di Rocca: This Tuscan sheep's milk cheese has a slightly grassy aroma, a sweet, nutty flavor, and a firm yet moist, crumbly texture. Collection includes: 6.5 oz. La Losetta, 8 oz. Brunet and 12.35 oz. Pecorino di Rocca. Shipped chilled. Made in Italy. A Williams-Sonoma exclusive.

Delicious, Fresh, Perfect
February 3, 2013
We received this cheese collection as a holiday gift, and it was perfect. The cheeses arrived labeled and with explanations of the type and origin of each cheese. All were superbly delicious, very flavorful, and we especially enjoyed the Pecorino, one of the best I have ever had. We've used it on everything from pasta to salads, and it just has been perfect. I plan on buying more. Perfect for parties and wine tastings.
Pros: Texture, Authentic, Quality, Good for Entertaining, Decadent, Flavor

We received this before Cristmas. Everyone in my family had a different favorite cheese. We ate every bite! We also received the French cheese collection. We liked it very much but preferred the Italian cheese collection.

Awful! Awful! Awful!
December 10, 2012
The cheeses arrived without label -- simply wrapped in saran wrap like a runny leftover from someone else's refrigerator who had rejected the cheese -- with good reason!!! Do NOT order the Italian Cheese Collection -- period..... To Williams-Sonoma's credit, it refunded the purchase price when I called the its Customer Service Department to give them a "heads up" on this totally inferior product from their Vendor.
Cons: Disappointing, Texture, smell, totally inedible, no label on cheese, "saran wrap" is not proper packaging, impossible to serve

I agree
Just got a few days ago, should have listened to what was described in this review. Was not very impressed at all. The Pecorino is fine, the Brunet is ok, but the La Losetta is downright nasty, even the smell is terrible which is probably why it tastes so bad also. Very disappointed, I would not recommend this.
