Description

Goat’s milk is probably the oldest and ancient of all cheeses. It was already part of the human diet before the discovery of cheeses from sheep’s and cow’s milk. Today it is most famous for its special taste and digestibility. Goat cheese offers excellent nutritional values and contains more iron and calcium than cow’s milk cheese.

This pure farmstead goat cheese has a thin white rind with an elastic texture and tiny “eyes”. This fresh, pleasantly milky cheese is aged for about 30 days. Enjoy at room temperature, any time of the day, on a cheese board, as a snack with crunchy bread or as an antipasti with some seasoned veggies. Serve with white wine or beer.

Caseificio Maremma was founded by Fortunato Spadi in 1966 in Maremma, an area of Tuscany. Fortunato and his sons, Emanuele and Simone, still run Caseificio Maremma with innovative technology, producing traditional and new cheeses.

Maremma is based in a rural area of Italy embracing the Tyrrhenian coast and the inland hills that stretch from Massa Marittima in Capalbio and icludes the area of Monte Argentario and the islands of Grosseto, Saturnia and up to the Tufi area of Sovana, Sorano and Pitigliano. This traditional setting is perfect for rearing sheep and cattle in the wild, yielding pristine and flavorful milk for producing genuine cheese with full flavors.
