Old Knowledge, New Flavours & Forest Life – Altamura Experience

Embark on a unique journey blending tradition, culture, and nature. The tour begins at the Dairy Farm in Altamura, where you’ll watch live cheese-making and taste our finest cheeses carefully paired with local wines.

The experience continues into the historic heart of Altamura: visit one of the town’s oldest ovens, discover the Monastery of Santa Chiara, and stop at the bakery where the famous “Tette delle Monache” (Sospiri Pugliesi) originated. These traditional pastries will accompany your lunch later, paired with the Padre Beppe Elixir liqueur.

After exploring the old town, drive to Baby Dicecca in the Mercadante Forest, within the Alta Murgia Park. In this tranquil setting, surrounded by nature, you’ll enjoy a forest lunch of cheeses and typical regional delicacies at our charming wooden kiosk.

A memorable immersion into Puglian food heritage, artisanal craftsmanship, and the serene beauty of the forest.

Puglia Cheese & Lunch Experience
It was excellent! Marina Villela

I had the Caseificio Dicecca tasting experience, and it was excellent. We had several dishes with different types of cheese and wonderful combinations. They were all very good! The service was excellent, very attentive and caring! Everyone comes up to you and wants to know more about you, where you live, what you're doing in the region! It was excellent!

Unforgettable experience. Melanie Dupuis

I visited a dairy farm in Puglia a few months ago and it was an unforgettable experience. I was greeted with upmost hospitality and kindness. I would highly recommend visiting this gem of a place nestled in the forest, the cheese is truly the star !!!

The best caseificio! mali bortucene

The best caseificio! Amazing cheese. Mozzarella, ricotta, and many other. They make all the cheese at the lab behind the shop.
