Goat Provolone
Provolone di Capra Lucano
The Provolone di Capra from the "Capretta Betta" company in Lagonegro, located in the heart of Basilicata, is a unique stretched curd cheese.
The goats graze freely in the lush meadows of Lagonegro from March to October, feeding on a variety of herbs and wild plants that give the milk, and therefore the cheese, a distinctive rich and aromatic flavor.
The Provolone di Capra "Capretta Bedda" stands out for its classic shape and for the stretched curd, obtained through a traditional processing method. After stretching, the cheese undergoes a short aging process that enhances its organoleptic qualities. The result is a cheese with a firm yet elastic texture, with a sweet and slightly spicy flavor, featuring delicate notes of herbs and flowers that reflect the natural grazing of the goats.
