About

The Taverna Penta Caseificio e Yogurteria is a family‑owned dairy & farm estate that has carried on the legacy of the Morese family for over three centuries. Nestled in the picturesque Piana del Sele, the estate boasts a sizeable herd of 600 dairy buffalo whose milk is turned into a wide range of traditional products – from the iconic Mozzarella di Bufala Campana DOP to ricotta, scamorza, primosale and a variety of yogurts, gels and pastries. Visitors can experience the craft first‑hand through onsite tasting rooms, a historic yogurteria, and a guided tour that takes them through the production chain from pasture to plate. The old casina “Taverna Penta” is a heritage building that combines rustic charm with modern comfort, offering a scenic courtyard for relaxation and a meeting hall (“stallone”) that accommodates up to 100 guests for business and cultural events. Whether you arrive for a family day out, a culinary exploration, or to attend a meeting, the estate provides friendly service, a deep respect for tradition, and a taste of authentic Campanian dairy culture. Daily opening hours ensure that both the caseificio and the yogurteria welcome guests from 8:00 to 20:00, with the caseificio open 9:00‑17:30 during normal days and 9:00‑14:00 on holidays. The farm also caters to travelers seeking accommodation; the nearby Auteta agriturismo offers well‑furnished apartments surrounded by verdant fields, making it ideal for those who wish to stay on site and immerse themselves in the serene countryside while accessing the full range of production and tasting experiences the estate offers.
