The producer
LATTERIA DI LIVINALLONGO - LIVINALLONGO DEL COL DI LANA (BL) - VENETO
Why we chose them
The Livinallongo Dairy is a cooperative located in the mountains of the upper Belluno area, composed of six members - led by chairman Christian
Grones - who are themselves farmers and milk suppliers. These small farms are situated in the immediate vicinity of the dairy, at an altitude of 1,500
metres, and produce an average of around 2200 litres of milk every day. The cows, mainly Italian Simmental and Brown Swiss breeds, are fed
primarily on home-grown hay, except in summer, when the animals are moved all together to the mountain pastures at Malga Cherz and can
therefore feed on fresh grass. No silage is permitted in their diet. The milk produced is therefore of high quality, processed in a well-organised dairy
by
skilled and professional cheesemakers who are dedicated to the production and maturing of authentic mountain cheeses.
