A unique taste, a thousand-year old tradition.
Producers Association of Robiola di Roccaverano PDO
In the hills around Roccaverano – a small town located in Piedmont – a special cheese was born, the only one of its kind in the world. Its name is Robiola di Roccaverano PDO: it is our treasure, we produce and protect it with passion and enthusiasm!
It is a soft-ripened cheese made with 100% goat’s or goat’s and cow’s milk, handcrafted exclusively in the area around Roccaverano.
Cheese making
Milk coagulation
We add exclusively animal rennet after the acidification process has begun
Shaping
We gently transfer the curd into special perforated moulds
Salting
We add salt on both faces during turning or at the end of the shaping process

“This Robiola is sophisticated, for connoisseurs, and it tells us about clean goats, from their fur to the stables, and then about yoghurt, butter, heated milk, pastures, pungent vegetables, moulds, yeasts, and mushrooms. It recalls a cellar full of intense smells. Scents, aromas and taste are explosive and long-lasting and at the same time clear and balanced, with powerful elegance.”
Fondazione Slow Food

“Soft and creamy, delicate and rich, nothing short of "delicious". A special cheese, truly hyper-local, because everything, from pastures and producers to local breeds and fodder, must come from the PDO geographical area.”
