Producer
In 1962, the Garofalo family purchased their first farmland in Capua Italy and started breeding Mediterranean buffalo. Their cheeses are made using traditional techniques and made in the original bufalare – a typical round masonry structure in which fresh milk was transformed into mozzarella, caciocavallo, provola and ricotta. The Garofalo family care for the welfare and nutrition of their buffaloes every single day. Everything starts within their seven farms where their animals are free to roam over 3,100 hectares of fertile land, where they cultivate corn, wheat, barley, oats, medicinal herbs, triticale and ryegrass. The care taken with the land, buffaloes and cheese making process is evident in all the cheeses they produce.
