Castillon 70g, Mons

As is often the case, David Ladu is the story of an encounter. At the time, he was still living in Castellas, in the Lubéron mountains, alongside his father, a Sardinian shepherd by birth. 
On their farm in the heart of the Lubéron massif, a passionate couple raise Sardinian ewes xau lait cru (raw milk). Castillon, their emblematic cheese, is the fruit of a unique know how, favouring a natural approach. 
With no added ferments, each stage of production is orchestrated in harmony with the surrounding natural environment.
In the early days, their flock consisted of a few Sardinian ewes, one of Europe’s oldest breeds. Today, with nearly 250 ewes, their flock thrives with each passing season.

Respect for nature guides their farming practices. In winter, the ewes, clad in dense wool, stay outside, feeding on 100% natural feed. In summer, they return to their shelters as soon as night falls, to enjoy eating when the weather is cooler.
