Asiago

Food · PDO · 292 municipalities

Recognized under EU PDO status since 1996, Asiago DOP is defined by a precise production zone spanning 292 municipalities, with the majority located in Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol. What distinguishes this denomination from neighboring cheeses is its highly restricted circle of authorized makers: only 42 verified producers are certified by the Consorzio per la Tutela del Formaggio Asiago to craft this cheese. This strict geographical boundary begins alphabetically in the municipality of Agugliaro and extends through municipalities like Ala, ensuring that every authentic wheel of cheese originates exclusively from these legally designated, approved local dairies.
