Dairy La Baronia
30 years of freshness and tradition
The history of the La Baronia dairy begins on February 19, 1990, the day when cousins Luca and Alfonso Cutillo set up the dairy business following the ancient canons of production. For about 30 years, the buffalo milk collected in these places, in a hilly area of the province of Caserta in Campania called alto Caserta, at the foot of the ridge of Mount Maggiore, transfers the scent and tastes of nature into our products, giving flavors unique and genuine capable of fully responding to the dictates of the PDO to which they belong. The quality and healthiness of the air, the salts present in the soil in an area without industrial settlements and the favorable wind, identify the origin and genuineness of the raw material we use for our production.
The quality of our Mozzarella DOP, subjected to the strict controls provided for by the disciplinary of the Protection Consortium, is to be found in the craftsmanship. The ancient production method is called "mozzatura" and consists in forging the piece of spun curd by hand, detaching the individual mozzarella with the index fingers and thumbs.
How to recognize an authentic Mozzarella di Bufala Campana DOP? It is essential to know how to read the label on the package of a mozzarella and make sure that the following information is given:
trademark of the Protection Consortium, trademark of the PDO, denomination Mozzarella di Bufala Campana, national (DPCM 10/5/93) and community (Reg. CE n.1107 / 96), authorization number of the dairy (AUT. CONSORZIO PROTECTION N. 000/00/0000).
