Remarkable Cheese Experience

Elisa, Sep 2026

This excursion was called Matera: Cheese Tasting with a Cheese Maker. That title is a very brief description of the event. It is given by a beautiful, very personable husband, wife and son that have been making cheese for generations for over 55 years. The husband was very skilled, showing us how to use hot water, yeast and curd to make the different cheeses which varied by different heat of water and different timing in the processes, also salt is used in different ways for different cheeses. He even had my wife and I stand up and Kneading the Mozzarella, tying it in knots, pinching it to make shapes. We both finished the excursion after two plus hours and had eaten a lot of cheese being very satisfied. The event was a spectacular experience that I would rank second to none and highly recommend.

Fabulous cheese class

This was a fantastic experience. Nicola shared his 50 years of cheese making knowledge in a really interesting and informative way that was truly fun. Grazia was a special host and made us feel very welcome. And we ate so much cheese! Highly recommended.
