Made with freshly squeezed Jersey milk from the Hiruzen Plateau
The sweet and gentle flavor fills your mouth

Fresh ricotta cheese from the Hiruzen Plateau

It has a rich aroma that makes you feel like you're drinking high-quality milk, and a juicy, rich mineral taste.
Using a method learned in Sicily, Italy, each piece is painstakingly hand-placed in a colander and immediately packed on the spot.
Enjoy the fresh taste of freshly made treats and the delicate, crumbling texture that is the artisan's speciality.

Made with freshly squeezed Jersey milk from the Hiruzen Plateau.
Like the Modica cows of Sicily, the home of ricotta cheese production, high-fat Jersey milk is perfect for making ricotta cheese, with a sweet and gentle flavor that fills your mouth.
The milk from the cows grazing in the summer has a refreshing yet rich aroma and depth. The carotene in the fresh grass is transferred to the milk, resulting in a slightly yellowish cheese.
In the winter, it transitions into a creamy, rich and complex deliciousness.

*The sun-dried salt used in this product comes from Sardinia, Italy.

[How to eat]

Open the lid a little, drain the water, then turn it upside down onto a plate and serve.
If you leave it on a plate in the refrigerator overnight, the water will drain and the flavor will become richer.
When eating, let it sit at room temperature to bring out the flavor.

  • カンノーリ

    cannoli

    Cannoli is a traditional dessert from Sicily, the home of ricotta cheese production.

    Cassata

    Like cannoli, cassata is a traditional Sicilian dessert, a luxurious ice cream cake featuring ricotta cheese.

A small cheese factory in the forest of the Hiruzen Plateau

The Hiruzen Plateau is a beautiful highland area located on the border between Okayama and Tottori prefectures.
Located at an altitude of approximately 1,200 meters, this place is known for its natural beauty in all four seasons.
The Hiruzen Plateau is also the region with the highest number of Jersey cows in Japan, and the cheese factory "IL RICOTTARO" (Italian: "The maker of ricotta") is located in the forest surrounded by magnificent nature.
Using milk from Jersey cows raised freely on the vast grounds, a single craftsman carefully makes cheese from scratch using traditional Sicilian methods.
Jersey cow milk is expensive due to its low production, but it has a rich, creamy taste that makes it perfect for making fresh cheese.

In the summer, the cows move around a lot and eat the fresh green grass of Hiruzen, where the pleasant breeze of the plateau blows through.
They survive the winter by eating nutritious fermented grass that has been produced and stored during the summer.
The milk comes from grass grown in nature, and the flavor of the milk changes delicately with the seasons.
Il Ricottaro values the flavor created by the Hiruzen terroir above all else.

Cheese making requires a lot of ingenuity, such as the desired texture and aroma, and the type of dish it will be used in.
But there are also many things that don't go well.
That's what makes it so interesting, and the cheese that is made with such thoroughness is truly the culmination of the artisan's hard work.
Yuichiro Takeuchi, a craftsman who loves to eat, pursues his own idea of deliciousness, and his cheese continues to evolve every day.
