Posticchia Sabelli’s Caciocavallo Silano is a semi-hard pasta filata cheese typical of southern Italy that has very ancient origins, dating back to Roman times. It is characterized by a spheroidal shape, tapering toward the neck, where it is tied below a small head that is also spherical. The cheeses are tied in pairs with a string and these are then hung astride sticks in rooms suitable for aging (hence the name “Cacio” a “Horse”). Masseria Posticchia Sabelli’s Caciocavallo Silano DOP is made exclusively with High Quality Fresh Milk from our cows fed on our own fodder. The control of the supply chain and the experience gained over the years make our Caciocavallo a cheese with unique organoleptic qualities.
