Kasu: The World’s First Cheese Aged in Fermented Rice
A Bold Pasti Enak® Original
Kasu is a groundbreaking creation from Pasti Enak®, proudly recognized as Indonesia’s first modern cheese licensed by BPOM. This firm, artisan cheese is aged in fermented rice, making it the world’s first of its kind. By combining traditional fermentation wisdom with modern craftsmanship, Kasu stands as a symbol of innovation rooted in culture.
Flavor and Texture
During its careful aging, Kasu absorbs the gentle sweetness and floral notes of fermented rice. The result is a firm cheese with a creamy bite, balanced by a subtle umami depth. Its aroma is delicate yet complex, with whispers of blossoms and grains that linger on the palate. Every 250‑gram wheel is crafted to deliver consistency, elegance, and a sensory experience unlike any other.
A Story of Fermentation
Fermentation has long been celebrated in Indonesia and across Asia as a source of flavor and vitality. Kasu honors this tradition by transforming rice — a staple of life — into a medium for aging cheese. The process creates harmony between grain and dairy, producing a taste that is both familiar and extraordinary. This innovation bridges cultures, blending Indonesian heritage with global artisan practice.
Perfect Pairings
Kasu pairs beautifully with non‑alcoholic drinks that highlight its floral and sweet notes. Kombucha enhances its gentle tang, while jasmine tea offers a fragrant balance. Tropical fruit juices such as mango or guava bring out its natural sweetness. Traditional rice‑based drinks like beras kencur or wedang jahe complement its depth, making Kasu versatile for both everyday enjoyment and festive occasions.
