They are our genetic heritage, and they are very important as they transfer their truly characteristic taste and flavors to our products, giving them an identity.
Our molds are unique because they cannot be replicated.
They originate thanks to specific natural aging cellars underground, where we can ensure the ideal microclimate suitable for the development of good molds, which we control by artisanal processes. Working with molds has been an essential and successful choice for us, as enhancing molds means enhancing the taste of our products.
We have been working in close cooperation with the farmers of the Taleggio Valley for ages. That is because we want to safeguard an inestimable heritage dealing with cheese production and high quality mountain agriculture.
The local products we make here are the expression of our great commitment and confidence in the possibilities of the Valley. They are a commitment to the economy and biodiversity of a mountain valley that gave birth to a sector of the actual Italian dairy industry.
The essential elements that allow us to produce excellent raw milk cheese are our indissoluble relation with the local dairy tradition, and of course the high quality milk of our cows that graze our pristine mountain pastures.
In the Taleggio Valley, milk has always been processed with no pasteurization, that means meeting and building up relationships with people and their land: we have direct contact with the environment that hosts us and we acquire knowledge from those who work in it.
It is important for us that all the farms that produce the milk for our cheese are as sustainable as possible: we want them to reflect our concept of respect, not only for the environment, but also for animals, products and consumer welfare.
This project has been accompanying our company for years.
Complementing our consolidated organic production experience, we have also begun to produce essential, important and unique cheeses using milk that is not only organic but also Biodynamic, and NOP certified.
