Caseificio Il Casolare is a family-run dairy located in Alvignano, in the Campania region of southern Italy. It was founded in 1984 and is now managed by members of the La Vecchia family, who proudly continue the tradition of artisanal cheesemaking.
The dairy specializes in the production of Mozzarella di Bufala Campana DOP, a cheese protected by designation of origin. The milk they use comes from water buffalo raised on local farms just a few kilometers from the dairy.
The milk is processed within 16 hours of milking, ensuring freshness and high product quality. Their mozzarella is known for its elastic texture, delicate flavor, and milky aroma.
All of their products are handmade, without the use of industrial additives, preserving the authentic taste. Il Casolare has received numerous awards, and their mozzarella is featured in top restaurants throughout Italy.
The dairy’s facilities and shop are located in a natural setting and are open to visitors who wish to buy cheese directly from the producer.
