Gli Aironi takes its name — "the herons" — from the wading birds that have long made their home in the flooded rice paddies of Vercelli, in Italy's Piedmont region, the historic heart of the country's rice production since the paddies were first drained and cultivated there centuries ago. The brand, produced by Risi & Co. in the rice-growing town of Lignana, built its reputation on that terroir with premium Carnaroli and other prized Italian rice varieties before extending its expertise into rice flour and rice-based baking. These biscotti are part of that newer line, made entirely with rice flour rather than wheat, leaving them naturally free of gluten, lactose, and eggs while still delivering a crisp, short, cookie-style bite. This cocoa-and-spice version blends rich cocoa with a warm spice mix for a fragrant, lightly sweet profile — a versatile everyday cookie equally suited to an afternoon coffee or a cheese and dessert board.
Real reviews from The Cheese Store of Beverly Hills Google Business Profile. Curated by Dom and his team since 1967.
Domenico and his team are fantastic. I’m a chef and I often get my supplies from The Cheese Store — unique products, carefully selected, from top Italian and French cheeses to excellent local ones.
Absolutely loved the cheese store! Everyone was super helpful and friendly. Lena helped us — she was very knowledgeable on all the cheeses: where they came from, what the region is like, what they are known for. It was like wine tasting for cheese.
Ordered several cheeses from them and the wrong items were delivered. Contacted the store and they recognized the error and immediately sent the correct order the next day without any fuss. Really appreciate the promptness and professionalism.
