Step into the world of traditional cheese-making in the enchanting Alto Molise region, where heritage, craftsmanship, and taste unite in a journey through centuries-old practices. This guided tour immerses you in the art of **stretched-curd cheese production**, passed down through eleven generations. From observing skilled artisans handcrafting cheese in a lively production lab to exploring stone-walled aging cellars, you’ll witness every stage of the process that transforms raw, local milk into exceptional cheeses. Your experience begins with a warm welcome and a visitor kit, ensuring you’re ready to step into the heart of the action. **In the production area, enjoy the sights, sounds, and aromas of traditional cheese-making as expert cheesemakers perform the time-honored filatura** process by hand, using wooden tools. Discover the role of whey starter and the importance of preserving traditional techniques in **crafting cheeses like Caciocavallo and ricotta**. Next, visit the **salting rooms and explore the maturation cellar**, where the award-winning aged Caciocavallo cheese develops its signature flavors and textures. Declared the best aged stretched-curd cheese in Italy in 2022, this delicacy exemplifies the craftsmanship and passion behind every product. As you tour, you’ll learn about the deep ties between cheese-making and the transhumance culture of Alto Molise, a **UNESCO-recognized tradition** that has shaped local communities for centuries. Conclude your visit with a guided tasting session featuring three signature stretched-curd cheeses, each showcasing the rich, authentic flavors of the region.
