Behind each of our cheeses is a story of mountain pastures and expert hands.
At the Faggiola dairy we process only 100% Italian mountain milk , handcrafted by our Master Cheesemakers who preserve the art of peasant tradition.
Our selection of artisanal cheeses captures the authentic flavors of Tuscany and Emilia-Romagna, but not only: a variety of flavors that whet the appetite and invite you to create a cheese and cured meat platter that will make every moment special.

A journey through the flavors of our artisanal cheeses
Our cheese assortment includes specialties for every palate, as well as different formats:
for example, we find semi-mature cheeses, mature cheeses and various specialities such as fossa cheese or Rosso Antico cheese , a caciotta aged in Sangiovese wine.
Among the types of cheese we also find both cow's milk cheeses and mixed cheeses , whole or already portioned.
Our offerings are designed to give you the opportunity to try different types of cheese, organize tasting evenings with friends, or create delicious and original recipes featuring cheese.
Recipes with cheese?
Cheese is a very versatile food in the kitchen, it can be used as the main ingredient in many recipes, or it can accompany main courses, completing meals, or as an appetizer.
Our friend Chef Max Mariola has also used our cheeses to create original recipes, paired with CLAI cured meats.

How to store cheese
- Store it in the refrigerator, in the central part, where the temperature is stable (around 4-6°C).
The middle is ideal because it is neither too cold (like at the back or near the freezer) nor too humid (like the vegetable drawer). - Wrap it well, but let it breathe: use cling film, baking paper or breathable paper (Avoid cling film alone: it doesn't allow the cheese to breathe and can alter its flavour.
If using cling film, it's best to wrap it in paper first and then in cling film to prevent it from drying out. - Store it in airtight containers (but not 100% airtight) or in cheese covers: they protect from refrigerator odors but allow a little air to circulate.
- Separate different types of cheese (aged, fresh, goat) to avoid mixing flavors.
- Check from time to time: if the paper is damp, replace it to avoid mold.
