Artisan Cheese from the Heart of Tuscany

Traditional cheese making in the Maremma since 1947

A Legacy of Tradition

Founded in 1947 by Giovanni Rossi, Caseificio della Maremma has been crafting exceptional cheeses for over 75 years. What began as a small family operation in the rolling hills of Grosseto has grown into one of Tuscany's most respected artisan cheese makers.

Our story is deeply rooted in the land and traditions of the Maremma. Giovanni learned the art of cheese making from his grandfather, who tended sheep in these same hills. Today, his grandson Marco continues the family tradition, using the same time-honored methods passed down through four generations.

Every wheel of cheese we produce tells a story of dedication, craftsmanship, and respect for the land. We believe that great cheese begins with happy animals, pristine pastures, and patient hands that understand the delicate balance of time, temperature, and tradition.

From Our Land to Your Table

The quality of our cheese begins with the quality of our milk. We work exclusively with local shepherds who share our commitment to animal welfare and sustainable farming practices.

Local Shepherds

All our milk comes from small family farms within 20 kilometers of our caseificio, ensuring freshness and supporting our local community.

Natural Pastures

Our sheep graze on wild herbs and grasses in the Maremma hills, giving our cheese its distinctive flavor and character.

Traditional Methods

We use only natural rennet, sea salt, and time. No additives, no shortcuts—just the way cheese has been made for centuries.
