Caciocavallo Silano

Food · PDO · 52 municipalities

Caciocavallo Silano DOP stands apart from other southern Italian pasta filata cheeses through its highly restricted production pool, which is limited to just 16 verified producers. These certified makers operate across 52 specific municipalities, concentrated largely within the Molise region in towns like Agnone and Acquaviva d'Isernia. Since receiving official PDO recognition in 1996, the cheese's authenticity is monitored by the Consorzio di Tutela del formaggio con denominazione di origine protetta Caciocavallo Silano. This strict zoning ensures that, unlike broader cheeses, every wheel originates solely from these 16 authorized dairies.
