Azienda Agricola Botticchio Nicola

In Artogne, on the cheesemaking slopes of the Lombard mountains, Azienda Agricola Botticchio Nicola concentrates its work on Silter DOP. This is a hard cheese made from raw, partially skimmed cow's milk, aged for at least one hundred days, breathing the air of the alpine pastures. During this long maturation, the mineral complexity and distinctive character protected by the denomination are formed. Here, traditional technique is not nostalgia but method: it defines the texture, aromas, and consistency of the cheese, linking each wheel to the alpine pasture territory from which the milk originates. Silter thus tells the story of a vertical landscape, made of mountain herbs and slow times, where the cheesemaker's hand remains decisive. The farm opens its doors to those who wish to see for themselves: stop for a visit and a tasting, following the aging of Silter from pasture to wheel and understanding how the hundred days build its mineral profile.
