La Peñona Cheese Factory

Quesería La Peñona is a family business, located in the small village of Somáu in the municipality of Pravia.

After almost 30 years of existence, the company has evolved by adapting to the new technologies that have arisen in the field of the agri-food industry, with the aim of producing the range of products it markets with the greatest guarantees of safety for its customers, complying with great scrupulousness with all the regulations in force in the field of the traditional production of products for human consumption derived from milk.

For the production of the different varieties of Afuega'l Pitu cheese that we produce, we only and exclusively use cow's milk from different livestock farms, each and every one of them located in the councils that belong to the Protected Designation of Origin.

The different products produced by the La Peñona Cheese Factory are distributed for sale in small and medium-sized shops...

In the guided tours we offer, we show the process of making Afuega'l Pitu cheese and at the end of the tour we offer a tasting of our products.
