Caseificio Cugusi:
The farm only uses its own milk from pastures extending over 200 hectares in the Val d’Orcia area, the first milking takes place at around 5 a.m. and the pasteurisation process begins at 6 a.m. Production is carried out with the utmost care and attention at every stage, which allows the farm to produce a cheese of unquestionable quality and fine taste. The maturing process takes place on fir wood planks, turning the cheeses daily. The company mainly produces three types of cheese: fresh cheese, which takes no more than 15 days to mature and has a soft texture and a light skin; semi-matured cheese, which matures for 3 months and has either a yellow skin or a red skin (if treated with tomato conserve); and finally, matured cheese, which requires at least 7 months of maturing and is characterised by a dark-coloured skin treated with olive oil grounds, these are only the macro-categories of cheeses produced by these artisans of taste, in fact their products also feature various cheeses fermented according to ancient traditions and other types of cheese that require special processing to guarantee unique tastes
