Description Description

The Creamy with Saffron leaves a delicate and persistent aftertaste of saffron on the palate, which, combined with the flavor of pecorino, gives an explosion of pleasure.
In addition to the calcium contained in milk and cheese, we want to focus on the therapeutic properties attributed to this very precious spice typical of the Val d'Orcia.
Saffron is considered: a natural antidepressant, because it stimulates good mood; it is good for the brain, thanks to its antioxidant properties improving learning ability; it is good for the eyes, thanks to Vitamin A which counteracts age-related macular degeneration; it is very useful for clearing the respiratory tracts, facilitating breathing even in the presence of asthma.
Excellent for spreading on genuine toasted bread, it is ideal for enriching a classic saffron risotto. Perfect also by the spoonful, in association with vegetables selected based on the personal taste of the consumer.

The Dairy The Dairy

The Val d'Orcia Dairy was established in 1964 with the aim of preserving the ancient dairy traditions of the region, which were endangered by local farmers abandoning their farms during those years. The goal was to support the shepherds who had relocated from Sardinia with their flocks to the mainland. In this valley, all the conditions were present to ensure a future in this sector and consequently enhance the local economy.

A precious milk sourced from flocks freely grazing among the untouched hills of Val d'Orcia, enriched by the unique fragrances and scents of this renowned land, celebrated for the distinctiveness of its natural and aromatic herbs such as thyme, savory, artemisias, and other common plants in the clayey soil of Val d'Orcia. These elements give the cheeses a distinctive and unmatched character.
