Why we chose them
Emanuela Perenzin represents the fourth generation of a family that has been producing cheese since 1898.
The Dairy was founded by Domenico Perenzin together with his sons - including Angelo, Emanuela's grandfather - in Tarzo, a few kilometers from
the current location built in 1958 and renovated in 1997.
The dairy awarded with a gold medal at the Salon des Arts Ménagers in Brussels in 1933.
Today Emanuela leads with passion and enthusiasm the family business in which she was already included as a very young child. In the last years
also her sons joined the management of the dairy, representing the fifth generation of the family: Matteo takes care of the processes while Erika is in
charge for the PER Cheese Bar and the shop.
The current production mainly includes goat cheeses, fresh and refined, some traditional cow's milk cheeses and a rich range of cheeses refined
with wine and grapes, all produced with milk comes from Veneto, Friuli and Piedmont.
