It is a Friulian dairy produced with raw, medium-aged milk, whose particularity is a further refinement in a tuff cave used since 1700 to refine cheeses located in a hilly area of Tuscany. It remains in this cave for another 3-4 months and this gives it a compact, barely crumbly paste with unique hints of undergrowth. It is no coincidence that it won the silver medal at the World Cheese Award 2015-2016.

Pezzetta

La storia dei formaggi Pezzetta inizia al femminile nel 1927 in un paesino del Friuli quando nonna Ninfa, rimasta vedova in giovane età e con tre figli piccoli da sfamare, grazie ad una licenza alimentare baratta al mercato di Udine prodotti del suo orto con forme di “Latteria” che stagiona, affina e rivende al suo paese. L'esperienza e la passione per i formaggi si tramanda per tre generazioni ed oggi i fratelli Marco e Paolo Pezzetta dispongono di 12 celle per stagionature differenti, di un  caseificio ad Ovaro a 527 m s.l.m. nell'alta Carnia e di un prosciuttificio a San Daniele del Friuli. Ecco perché sono in grado di offrirci non solo stupendi e pluripremiati formaggi, ma anche prodotti tipici del territorio friulano: un territorio che riserba inaspettate sorprese ed è in gran parte ancora da scoprire.
