Curiosity
In the pastures of Lessinia, 137 wild species belonging to 29 different families (57% of mountain flora) have been identified, whose aromatic substances are transferred to milk, and therefore to cheese, thanks to the solubility of plant compounds in milk fats
Our selection
Lessinia, in the upper Veronese area, is still one of those territories where there is a large presence of mountain pastures and dairy farms. It is precisely in this area that the 10 Malghe project by Caseificio Dalla Valentina came to life: milk from pasture-fed cows collected daily from ten mountain dairies located between 1,300 and 1,600 metres above sea level in the Lessinia Park. A collection of cheeses produced only from the beginning of June to the end of September

Selected because

The history of Caseificio Dalla Valentina began in the 1920s, when great-grandfather Domenico and his son Achille started producing cheese. Over the years, they decided to increase production, and so Caseificio Achille was founded in 1957. In the 2000s, with the arrival of the third generation led by brothers Franco and Ezio, the dairy was modernised and took on its current appearance. Today, Caseificio Dalla Valentina, the current name of the company, processes milk from around twenty local farms all year round, managing the daily milk collection round. From June to September, with the summer project "10 Malghe", it also processes milk collected from 10 mountain dairies located between 1,300 and 1,600 metres above sea level in the heart of the Lessinia Park: a collection of summer cheeses produced with thermised milk that enhances the great tradition of mountain dairies and pastures located in Lessinia.
