Latteria Sociale di Chiuro
Chiuro · Province of Sondrio · Lombardia
Founded in 1957 by a collective of small mountain farmers, Latteria Sociale di Chiuro has evolved into an efficient cooperative producing milk, butter, yogurt, and Protected Designation of Origin cheeses across the Sondrio valleys. The dairy crafts Valtellina Casera DOP and Bitto DOP, two singular alpine expressions: the former a semi-skimmed, semi-hard cheese aged minimum 70 days; the latter a raw-milk cylindrical cheese produced exclusively June through September. Today the cooperative integrates economic resilience with environmental and social responsibility.
