Tuscan Goat Cheese is produced in the Maremma — one of the last wild landscapes of Italy, where goats roam free on spontaneous pastures of wild herbs, thyme and Mediterranean scrubland. The Caseificio Maremma processes the raw milk without preservatives into a 500 g form with a firm, creamy paste and a clean, slightly herbaceous flavour that faithfully reflects what the goats have grazed.
🏆 What makes this goat cheese different
Industrial goat cheese is typically made from pasteurised milk from intensive farming, with acidity regulators and preservatives. This Tuscan Goat Cheese starts with raw milk from free-range goats in the Maremma — open pasture and scrubland that transfer genuine flavour and aroma directly into the cheese. No artificial preservatives, no milk powder, no additives.
Goat milk contains fat globules with a smaller molecular structure than cow's milk — this makes this cheese easier to digest and better tolerated by those with lactose sensitivity or cow's milk protein reactions.

❓ FAQ — Tuscan Goat Cheese
What is Tuscan Goat Cheese from the Maremma?
A handcrafted goat cheese made from raw milk of free-range goats in the Maremma in Tuscany — firm, creamy paste, no artificial preservatives, 500 g vacuum-sealed.
Is goat cheese suitable for the lactose intolerant?
Goat's milk has smaller fat globules than cow's milk and is generally easier to digest and better tolerated by those with lactose sensitivity. It is not lactose-free however — if you have severe intolerance, consult your doctor before consuming.
What is the difference between goat cheese and pecorino?
Pecorino is made from sheep's milk — more pronounced flavour, drier, saltier paste. Goat cheese has a cleaner, slightly acidic and herbaceous profile with a softer, creamier texture. Both are artisan Tuscan cheeses but with very different characters.
