How a Botalla Toma is produced

Le montagne Biellesi

We currently treat over 7 million litres of milk a year, all coming from the mountains which surround us.

20000 litres of milk a day

The expert work of our cheese-making technicians, carried out in our 4 artisans’ productive units, concludes the first transformation...

...but above all, the time spent in our natural cellars,
for a maturing period which lasts between 60 and 120 days,
makes a toma a Botalla Toma.

Our natural cellars

A microclimate which is constant all year round (8°c, 80% humidity),
in which 80,000 cheeses are brushed,
turned and taken care of one by one on wood boards,
thus exalting their genuineness and uniqueness.

Maturing period

26 varieties of toma, differing according to the type of milk used,
skimming process, pasteurisation and length of maturing period.
