Bitto DOP and Valtellina Casera DOP
Raw milk cheeses taste better!
Raw milk brings to cheeses the aromas of its territory, notes from the scents of meadows, the characteristics of native species, the work of cheese-makers.
Bitto DOP, the king of Valtellina dairy products, is made from whole milk that is processed warm, fresh from the cows, as the cattle graze at high altitudes during the summer. The Pedranzini family pasture is located at an altitude of 2,500 metres, in Alpe Fornazzo, near the Forni glacier, one of the largest and most striking Italian glaciers, surrounded by the Ortles-Cevedale. After returning to the stables to spend the harsh winter, the cattle continue producing milk with high nutritive value, which is processed to obtain tasty table cheeses, including the Valtellina Casera DOP. A half-fat cheese made with 30% skim milk and with 70% whole milk, according to a strict production protocol that makes it one of the most popular protected Italian products.
Solid medium-aged (3/4 months) or mature (6-8 months) semi-cooked/semi-hard white or pale yellow cheese.
Its flavour is sweet, delicate and distinctive, becoming stronger and more intense as it matures.
“Made from whole raw milk”.
