| Curiosity | The buffaloes from which the milk for the production of this burrata is obtained are raised in a semi-wild state on their own farm on the Maremma hills. The farm is a virtuous example of circular economy, short supply chain and sustainability in all fields: the biogas plant transforms cereals, livestock and dairy processing wastes into energy; the cultivation of cereals is aimed at feeding the buffaloes; all the milk produced by the stable is processed; animal welfare is placed at the centre, together with that of the staff and of the environment |
| Our selection | We had been looking for a buffalo burrata for a long time and, thanks to Guido Pallini of La Maremmana, we were able to develop this project together: the result is a burrata full of personality, beautiful to look at and with a sweet, balanced flavour. The burrata is processed every day of production |

The producer
La Maremmana - Principina Terra (GR) - Tuscany
Why we chose them
La Maremmana' is the name of the buffalo-milk mozzarella produced by the Inno al Sole Dairy, run by the young Guido Pallini. After gaining some
experience abroad in the world of finance, he decided to return to Tuscany to take over the family business founded by his father.
The Maremmana is a native cattle breed of southern Tuscany and northern Lazio, rustic and very hardy, with large lyre-shaped horns and a coat
with greyish hues. The farm was originally established to rear this beef cattle breed, but during the crisis of the 1980s, it became necessary to
diversify the business. Marcello Pallini, Guido's father, fell in love with buffaloes during a trip to Salerno - robust and intelligent animals - and decided
to reintroduce them to the Maremma. The Inno al Sole Dairy is situated in Principina Terra, a hamlet of Grosseto, and has been converted from a
19th-century farmhouse, 500 metres from the barn. It is flanked by the farm shop, separated from the production area only by a glass partition to
allow customers to watch the production process. Today, the barn is home to around 400 buffaloes, 250 of which are lactating, reared in free-range
conditions and fed on home-grown cereals and fodder. Guido has succeeded in breathing new life into a business that has been in the farming trade
for 200 years, back when transhumance was still practised in the Maremma.
