Why we chose them
Di Cecca dairy is located in Campania, more precisely in Irpinia (an area close to the Basilicata region) in the town of Calitri, at an altitude of 700
meters above sea level. Since June 2001, the company has been producing cheeses with local milk: the dairy is managed by the Di Cecca family
with the aim of promoting local products. The cheesemakers are two brothers-in-law, Giovanni Di Roma and Luigi Di Cecca. "We collect the milk
every day from local farmers and every day we produce our cheeses," they told us. The caciocavallo is produced following the traditions of
Southern Italy, and the affinage takes place in ancient natural caves made of stone and tuff located near the town of Calitri. Thanks to the expertise
that Giovanni and Luigi have developed over many years of activity, their cheeses have received numerous awards.
