Puglia, Sardinia & Beyond
Regional Cheeses
Aged according to generations-old traditions, our regional cheeses are selected for character, provenance, and the stories of the families who make them. From aged Caciocavallo to Sardinian Pecorino — each is inseparable from its place of origin.
Our standard
Aged by hand. Regional DOP varieties. Family producers only.
Italy's regional cheese tradition is among the richest in the world — hundreds of distinct varieties, each inseparable from its territory, its milk source, its aging method, and the hands that made it. Altieri's cheese selection is deliberately regional: we do not offer generic Italian cheese. We offer specific cheeses from specific places, made by specific families, with documented provenance and traditional production methods.
What defines this category
How we select
Our cheese selection changes with the season and with what our producers are offering at their best. We do not maintain a fixed catalogue — we offer what is exceptional at the time of order.
Our producers
Cheese producers in the Altieri collection span Puglia, Sardinia, Emilia-Romagna, and Campania. All are small family operations. None supply industrial distributors.
