Nossa Caschareia / Savogniner Heumilch Käse

The Savognin mountain cheese is made from hay milk. In summer, this is delivered fresh daily through the milk pipelines from the Alps to the mountain cheese dairy in Savognin. It comes from dairy cows that spend the early summer and autumn on the home pastures and in summer feed exclusively on grass and mountain herbs on the species-rich alpine pastures in Surses.

They spend the winter months in free stalls with spacious outdoor areas and use aromatic mountain hay. The natural and silage-free feeding of the cows is reflected in a particularly good milk quality and contributes to the spicy taste of the Savognin mountain cheese.
