A region whose geographical conformation is highly suitable for raising sheep, goats, and water buffaloes, along with the expertise passed down from generation to generation and a deep passion for good things, are the main ingredients of the finest fresh cheeses from Lazio, which you can find on our e-commerce platform.
Only cow's milk from Lazio's farms is used to create delicious cow's milk mozzarellas, which are then brought to the table by local artisans to delight even the most discerning palates with their delicate and smooth taste.
From the Amaseno Valley comes the buffalo milk, which, only after being skillfully and patiently handcrafted following tradition, provides an exceptionally high-quality mozzarella. The short supply chain and the farms located in areas free from industries and contamination create the perfect conditions for producing one of the best Italian buffalo mozzarellas.
Among the dairy products of excellence from this area, we also find the Caciottina massaggiata di Amaseno, a cheese with a crumbly and creamy texture infused with the flavors of a blend of aromatic herbs and seasonal flowers. It is still "treated" in the same traditional way today to offer a distinctive aroma derived from ancient artisanal techniques. This cheese's lengthy preparation involves the exclusive use of buffalo milk from the lower Lazio region, and it undergoes repeated massages with olive oil and vinegar, performed by hand.
The short supply chain and the passion of master cheesemakers are the "secret" behind an organic ricotta with a soft consistency and bold taste. The organic sheep's milk ricotta from Sabina is made exclusively with sheep's milk from the area enclosed between the Tiber River, the Nera River, the Apennines, and the Aniene River. Considered a perfect fresh Lazio cheese, it can be enjoyed on its own or used as an ingredient in delicious desserts. It delights the palate with the delicate aromas that come from the pastures of these valleys.
In the Tuscia region, the pastures provide goat milk that, under the hands and expertise of master cheesemakers, transforms into delightful ricottas, stracchinati, and the delicious Caprino Nobile. The particularly delicate taste and soft consistency of goat ricotta make it perfect for those who do not enjoy the strong flavor of sheep's milk and for those with dietary intolerances.
