Roccaverano Cheese

The Presidium protects the small-scale producers who pasture their animals and make Roccaverano Robiola only from raw goat’s milk. Sadly, over the years, the number of Roccaverano goats, the local breed, has fallen drastically as they have been replaced by more productive breeds. In 1990, there were just 200 animals left, but the revival of authentic Roccaverano Robiola has led to initiatives to safeguard the breed. Some of the producers also raise them.
