I assumed I wouldn't be able to get this cheese. But the RWC Whole Foods does carry it (not at the moment, however, because of the season), so I'd have to assume Draeger's, Sigona's, and other stores do, too.

If you live in California or close to it and you've never had Bubalus Bubalis buffalo mozzarella, ask your grocer or cheese shop about it. Amazing stuff. Bubalus Bubalis is also the name of the breed of buffalo the cheesemaker had flown over from Italy to start his operation. I'm not sure if I'm spelling it right.

Maybe other cheesemakers or ranchers in America are raising this breed, but I'm not aware of any. The cheese goes down in quality so quickly that I've heard it's not practicable to ship it all over the place.
