THE MANCIANO CASEIFICIO SOCIALE – This Cooperative Agricultural Society was born in 1961 from the desire of 21 local farmers with the aim of valorizing the production of sheep’s milk within the Maremma region in the province of Grosseto, an area in which age-old pasteurizing techniques have always represented one of the principal means of sustenance.
Today the Cooperative without doubt has met its first objective, uniting around 330 producers of sheep and cow’s milk over 11 cities in the province of Grosseto and 2 in the province of Viterbo.

The dairies respect antique traditions while using modern equipment, producing sheep’s milk and mixed-milk cheeses, which thanks to the fresh and “light” flavor of the softest cheeses and sharp flavor of the more aged cheeses, along with the unmistakable ricotta cheese, bring joy to dinner tables throughout Italy.
The constant study, research and experimentation, in accordance with laws and guidelines that have governed cheese making in Tuscany for centuries, have brought the cheese produced in Manciano particular notoriety for its unique and genuine qualities, consistently satisfying the desires of its vast and competent client base.
