Ricotta (Goat Cheese)
Caprino di Valnerina (Goat Ricotta from Valnerina, Umbria) is a delicate, fresh cheese made from the rich, aromatic milk of local mountain goats. Handcrafted in the pristine Valnerina valley, this ricotta is creamy yet light, with a subtly sweet, grassy flavor and a hint of alpine herbs from the goats' diet. Traditionally enjoyed drizzled with honey, paired with Umbrian black truffles, or spread on rustic bread, it’s a testament to the region’s pastoral traditions. A rare, artisanal treasure of central Italy! 🧀🌄🐐

Craft Beer
Craft Beers from Umbria, Italy – Steeped in monastic tradition, Umbria’s artisanal brews trace their roots to medieval Benedictine and Franciscan monks, who perfected beer-making in abbeys like Birra Nursia (Norcia). Today, local brewers honor these methods with Trappist-style ales, spiced brews, and barrel-aged beers, often using Umbrian grains, chestnuts, or even saffron. Expect complex, earthy flavors—from malty dubbels to herb-infused abbey ales—best enjoyed with hearty Umbrian cuisine. A divine sip of history! 🍻🏰
🧀 Food & Culinary Zone
Olive Oil
Olive Oil from Spoleto, Umbria is a prized DOP (Protected Designation of Origin) extra virgin olive oil, known for its vibrant green-gold color, fresh grassy aroma, and balanced flavor—fruity, slightly bitter, and peppery. Made primarily from local varieties like **Moraiolo, Leccino, and Frantoio**, it’s harvested early for maximum quality. Perfect for drizzling over Strangozzi pasta, bruschetta, or Umbrian dishes. A true taste of Spoleto’s rich terroir! 🌿🍃
