Scaluni Ragusano DOP 12 Months

At APANI® - As Pure As Nature Intended® - we believe that nature is the ultimate source of purity and goodness. That’s why we have dedicated ourselves to crafting one of the most ancient cheese of Sicily: Ragusano DOP. This incredible product called in the local Sicilian language “Scaluni” (because if its shape resembling a step), has ancient origins: there is evidence of its presence in Sicilian history as far back as 1.500 AD. It is an ancient work of art resulting of cheese-making mastery handed down through generations, a symbol of the heritage of centuries-old traditions that origined in a part of Sicily where the landscape is uncontaminated, surrounded by carob trees and rural architecture forged by man and protected by characteristic dry-stone walls.

MODICANA MILK MAGIC
Ragusano DOP is a string cheese made exclusively from the milk of the Modicana breed cows. Its production is limited to the seasons when the pastures of the Hyblean plateau are particularly lush.

In APANI® Scaluni - Ragusano DOP you will find:
+ BIODIVERSITY AS WEALTH OF QUALITY.
+ 100% MILK FROM GRAZING COWS FED MAINLY ON WILD HERBS.
+ VERY PLEASANT, AROMATIC AND SWEET TASTE WHEN THE CHEESE IS YOUNG, WHICH GRADUALLY BECOMES SPICIER AS THE MATURING PERIOD IS EXTENDED.
