Cheeses

Fattoria della Piana is a cooperative company comprised of farmers only from Calabria. The company collects and processes milk daily from farms located in the Aspromonte Region, on Mount Poro, on the plains of the Giao Tauro and in the Crotone area.  Using centuries-old cheese making recipes and the modern technology of new factories, their artisanal cheeses are always of the highest quality.   Calabria is the home of many kinds of sheep cheese, such as those from Vezzano and Monte Poro.  Nonetheless, the most well known is possibly that from Crotone, as its flavor is slightly stronger than those of the other southern Italian sheep’s cheeses.
