Di Stefano Salvatore

Ragusano DOP

Di Stefano Salvatore produces Ragusano DOP, the monumental stretched-curd cheese that defines southeastern Sicily. Each golden block—weighing 12 to 16 kilograms—emerges from raw milk sourced across the 15 municipalities of the protected zone in Ragusa province. The producer's commitment to this labour-intensive cheese-making tradition captures the terroir and pastoral heritage of the Val di Noto, translating milk quality into the signature straw-yellow rind and dense paste that mark authentic Ragusano.
