Curiosity
Known since the 10th century, Taleggio is a PDO soft cheese made from whole cow's milk. Carozzi ages it with care and passion in Pasturo, in the heart of Valsassina, where it finds the ideal microclimate to best express its refined qualities. The PDO label ensures the milk's origin, the specific preparation characteristics, and the places of aging. It is granted by the Taleggio Protection Consortium only to companies that adhere to strict production standards

Carozzi Formaggi - Pasturo (LC) - Lombardy

Selected because

The Valsassina valley, nestled between Lake Lecco and the distinctive Grigna mountain, boasts unique microclimatic conditions that are ideal for the production of cheese. And it is precisely here that the Carozzi family has been working for over 60 years. Founded in 1960 by Aldo Carozzi, the company is now in its third generation and is currently run by Roberto together with his three children: Vera, Aldo and Marco. Carozzi passionately combines the skill of cheesemakers with the latest technology. At the new premises in Pasturo, Lecco, in a modern setting, the human touch remains irreplaceable in the maturing of washed-rind cheeses, the company's main activity. Prioritising quality above all else, Carozzi matures all the great Lombardy DOPs such as Gorgonzola, Taleggio and Quartirolo. But that's not all. From the ideas of the younger generations, new projects and new products have emerged: from the freshest goat's cheeses, to bloomy-rind cheeses, right through to creamy cheeses.
