This cheese is one of the examples of hard cheeses made using a mold that gives it its characteristic appearance and texture.

The Canestrato mold has a cylindrical shape, with clearly marked, delicate grooves on the surface of the cheese. These grooves are created by the special design of the mold, contributing to the cheese's unique appearance and texture.
