Artisanal Goat Cheese
Brânză de Capră from Buzău Land
From Local Pastures to Your Table
At Conacul Grigorescu, we produce naturally fermented goat’s cheese using traditional Romanian methods. Our cheese embodies simplicity, authenticity, and the unique terroir of the Buzău region.
Every wheel and log of cheese tells the story of local pastures, artisan craftsmanship, and our commitment to slow food principles.
Origin of Our Milk
Local Farm Partnership
We source fresh goat milk from a trusted family farm located near the Mud Volcanoes of Buzău, a unique geological formation within the UNESCO Global Geopark Buzău Land.
The goats graze on natural pastures rich with wild herbs and grasses, which impart distinctive flavors to the milk and, ultimately, to our cheese.
