Ricotta di Bufala Campana

Food · PDO · 1 municipality

Ricotta di Bufala Campana DOP remains highly distinct from neighboring fresh cheeses due to its restricted geographic footprint within Molise, where its production is confined to the single municipality of Venafro. Since obtaining official PDO recognition in 2006, this cheese has been crafted by an exclusive group of only 24 verified producers. Under the direct oversight of the Consorzio per la tutela della Ricotta di Bufala Campana DOP, these select makers maintain strict adherence to local boundaries, separating this tight-knit origin product from other Italian cheeses that span much larger regional territories.
