Our selection
When we met Angela and Simone, what struck us was their enthusiasm and their transparency, when we then tasted their products, we realized they were just aligned with our philosophy. The thing that we liked most is that they mostly work the milk of Maremma so with their cheese they really talk about their territory

Selected because

Il Fiorino dairy was founded by Duilio Fiorini in 1957 in Roccalbegna, in the Maremma region. Today it is run by his daughter Angela and her husband Simone, who combine the founder's experience and traditional recipes with an innovative vision of the company, both from a technological and market perspective. Il Fiorino began participating in various international competitions: since 1964, when it received its first award at the Saturnia cheese competition, Angela and Simone have collected over 200 medals at events such as the World Cheese Awards, Mondial du Fromage, Trofeo San Lucio and other important contests. As proof of its deep connection with the Maremma, Il Fiorino only processes milk from sheep raised within a 40 km radius of the dairy, maintains the craftsmanship of certain stages of production and ages the best cheeses in the family cave, earning it the P.A.T. (Traditional Agri-Food Products) certification.
