Ragusa · Province of Ragusa · Sicilia

Ragusano DOP

Casa del formaggio S. Anna produces Ragusano DOP, Sicily's singular stretched-curd cheese, from the eight municipalities surrounding Ragusa. Each wheel—a 12 to 16-kilogram block with golden rind—is shaped by hand into the distinctive parallelepiped form that defines the denomination. Working exclusively within the protected zone, the cheesemakers follow the raw-milk protocol that gives Ragusano its pronounced, complex character and establishes it among Italy's most demanding artisanal cheeses.
