Matera: Degustazione di Mozzarella e Formaggi con un Casaro Esperto

We were greeted by a lifelong cheesemaker and his wife in their house. They shared a lot more than what was expected and we had plenty of food, so prepare accordingly. We got to see the whole process of making different types of cheese and even put our hands to work for mozzarella. We can’t wait to get back home to try and make our cheese! Thank you for this wonderful experience

This was hands down the best tour we’ve done overseas. Do NOT have breakfast before this tour. The cheesemakers were the most lovely of people. Making cheese with them in their home was like being welcomed into their family. The Burrata! Omg…the most amazing version I’ve tasted and the quality local milk made the best ricotta I’ve ever had.
