22.01.2019 - Our delicious Stilfser cheese

South Tyrol’s first and only cheese to have received the PDO label

In 2007 the Stilfser/Stelvio cheese became South Tyrol’s first and only cheese to have received the PDO Label (Protected Designation of Origin). 
This designation guarantees pure quality, authenticity and a historical connection to its place of origin. 
Stilfser is a typical mountain cheese made from milk derived from alpine farms in South Tyrol. 
The Stilfser (Stelvio) Cheese is produced by the South Tyrolean dairy of Mila/Latte Montagna Alto Adige and at the dairy of Burgeis/Burgusio.
The fresh milk used to make Stilfser PDO cheese is collected daily from 300 alpine farms in South Tyrol – 97% of which are located at an altitude of more than 1,000 metres – and is processed within 24 hours of delivery.
