BELOMETTI srl
Grumello del Monte · Province of Bergamo · Lombardia
In Grumello del Monte, on the slopes of Monte Bronzone, Belometti srl preserves a Lombard cheesemaking knowledge dating back to the 1930s. Production revolves around two protected designation cheeses, both raw paste but of opposite character: `Salva Cremasco DOP`, made from whole cow's milk, with a washed rind and at least seventy-five days of aging; and `Taleggio DOP`, soft, in rectangular blocks matured on wooden boards for no less than thirty-five days. Behind these two cheeses lies a working method that combines technical expertise passed down through generations with direct dialogue with local cheesemakers. Transformation and aging occur in close contact with the raw material, which bears the imprint of the glacial valleys and alpine pastures from which the milk originates. The result is cheeses that differ in consistency and aging, but are united by the same geographical origin and the same care in maturation.
