The Lafranchi Family’s been ranching in Nicasio (Marin) since the early 1900’s. They are proud of the quality of their operation and the family foundation on which their business is built.
Marin’s home to 23 cow dairies. The LaFranchi Family is one such dairy, a third generation farm that produces organic, farmstead cheeses. Their goal is simple – to make the cheeses of their ancestral Valle Maggia in Switzerland with high quality, organic milk from their own cows.
The biggest reason I love Nicasio Cheese is that they are approachable. Their smaller format makes portioning a breeze. And since their soft-ripened cheeses err on the side of single or double creams, they melt wonderfully.
