Selected because

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.
