Caseificio La Vecchia Masseria Srl

Founded in 1995 by the Diana brothers, La Vecchia Masseria builds upon three generations of cheesemaking expertise in Villa Literno, Campania. Here, Ricotta di Bufala Campana DOP emerges as a noble outcome of mozzarella production: the whey, instead of being discarded, yields a velvety mass of measured sweetness, where the lactic note remains clean and free of harshness. It is a dairy product that thrives on freshness and should be enjoyed within its first few days. The company manages two hundred hectares of forage for its buffaloes and powers its dairies with renewable energy, including photovoltaic and biogas — a short supply chain that closes in on itself, from stable to finished product. A visit completes the picture: guests can stop for a tasting and personally verify how this ricotta, often relegated to a supporting role, can truly hold its own as the centerpiece of the table. Booking an on-site tasting is the most direct way to grasp its character before its freshness fades.
