Caseificio Maremma
Caseificio Maremma is a family-owned business founded by Spadi Fortunato in the 1960s and located in the coastal town of Follonica. It is here that the daily deliveries of fresh Tuscan Maremma sheep's milk is transformed into a variety of traditional cheeses.
Caseificio Maremma has a deep commitment to working with only local farmers to ensure that age old traditions of Maremma sheep farming are preserved.
After an initial short ripening period, the cheese is taken for aging in cheese caves high in the
Castel del Piano hills.
Like many of our best producers, Caseificio Maremma combines a modern and hygienic factory with the age-old traditional techniques, such as hand salting and cave ageing. Their cheese is a unique expression of the wild pastures of the Maremma.
