F.lli Ciapponi

In the historical centre of Morbegno, the Bottega dei Fratelli Ciapponi is easily recognisable by its old sign “Drogheria - Granaglie - Formaggi – Cordami”. But above all, you will be amazed by the back of the shop, an astonishing succession of vaults, columns and cellars where the cheeses of vintage Bitto DOP, aged up to ten years, Valtellina Casera DOP, cured meats, Valtellina wines and grappas are kept.

When choosing cheese, we advise you to let your taste guide you because they will let you taste everything on the old wooden table in the cellar. You may be accompanied by old Ciapponi, who will tell you, with a certain humour, the history of the business and the secrets of Bitto processing.

The Ciapponi brothers, with art and little secrets they treasure, have handed down from generation to generation the artisanal rules of preservation, care and ageing of absolutely natural products. In addition to local specialities, they also offer a fine selection of other regional delicacies.

Tastings: always during opening hours.

Closed Mondays.
