Hey cheese people! Former cheese slicer here and I had a serious question that I'm almost ashamed to ask! Sartori made this one seasonal bellavitano for maybe 2-3 years I think, but they stopped making it in 2020 or 2021 maybe? The main thing about it was that it had paprika on the rind similar to the cheese in this picture. It was my favorite cheese and I was devastated when it got discontinued.

I saw this in the store a few days ago and it has a different name, but it's also by Sartori and it's look reminded me a lot of that old cheese, so I figured I'd try it. The taste is NEARLY identical to the old cheese, and I'm so freaking excited about it!

I came here to ask, does anybody know the name of the discontinued cheese I'm thinking of? And has anyone tried this one and know what cheese I'm talking about? I can't believe I forgot the old one's name, but any help is appreciated!
