The cheeses of the S. Antonio Cooperative

They were born in Tertenia, one of the warmest and sunniest areas of Sardinia, a tourist destination for many vacationers. Tertenio cheeses are still born, as in the past, from sheep's and goat's milk from flocks reared in the wild, in uncontaminated pastures.
Hence the taste of products with the Coop brand. S. Antonio is so special: nothing can imitate the taste that comes from this nature and from the ancient wisdom of knowing how to make cheeses

Aleri Sardinian Pecorino DOP

Pecorino Sardo DOP cheese, table and grated cheese with a compact texture, white in color tending towards straw yellow as it matures.

Since 4 November 1991, Pecorino Sardo boasts the recognition of the Denomination of Origin: the first great consecration of a typical cheese among the most widespread and representative of the dairy panorama of Sardinia. Subsequently, with the entry into force of the Community legislation on Denomination of Origin products, another very important recognition was added to the national recognition which in fact raised and extended the protection threshold for typical products to a European level. In July 1996, with Reg. Cee n.1263/96 the Pecorino Sardo in fact obtained the DOP, Protected Designation of Origin. This Denomination is assigned by the European Union only to the most representative typical products whose peculiarities are strictly and inextricably linked to the geographical environment of origin and which for this very reason are unique and inimitable.

Our land: Tertenia

Tertenia rises in the valley between Monte Ferru and the heel of Monte Arbu, just 103 kilometers from Cagliari, and is the southernmost town in Ogliastra. Its territory is varied, harsh and highly indented, dominated by the Dolomite plateaus of Taccu Mannu and Tacchixèddu. The ancient navigators established their abode in the hinterland of the coastal area of the municipality of Tertenia, but soon, having known the territory, they moved inland to the edge of the valleys, richer in waterways. Only later did they occupy the wide valley of the Quirra up to the edge of the heels. In the past, the town stood out above all for its mining production, its territory is, in fact, rich in deposits of pyrite, barite, quartz: the mines of Bau Arena, Sarrala and Barisoni-Porto Santoru were particularly well known.

More recently, the town has discovered an important tourist vocation due to the enhancement of its landscape and naturalistic beauties, which manage to combine the mountains and the sea in a particularly suggestive synthesis.

In the surrounding area, the volcanic complex of Monte Ferru is worth a visit, full of woods and demanding paths; through Monte Ferru, through the panoramic road of Sarrala, you enter the splendid coastal area of the Tertenia marina characterized by the alternation of very white beaches and cliffs, including the beautiful beach of Foxi Manna, with the homonymous tourist settlement, dominated from the Aleri nuraghe and that of the coast of Sarrala, characterized by the presence of the interesting seventeenth-century tower of San Giovanni di Sarrala.

La denominazione di questa località risale con molta probabilità alla presenza nella zona dell’antica città romana di Saralapis, di cui sono però purtroppo andate quasi completamente perdute le tracce. Infatti è ampiamente testimoniato dalla presenza di domus de janas, tombe dei giganti e numerosi nuraghi che il territorio di Tertenia fu abitato fin dalla preistoria. Da citare ancora il nuraghe Nastasi, il nuraghe Longu e il nuraghe Aleri.

L’economia è prevalentemente basata sull’artigianato, agricoltura (viti, ulivi), pastorizia e sulla produzione locale del pecorino, ormai richiesto in tutta la Sardegna ed esportato anche all’estero. Alla diffusione dei prodotti locali ha fatto da volano lo sviluppo del turismo estivo, grazie alla bellezza della piana di Sarrala e delle spiagge che vi si aprono, prima fra tutte quella di Fogi Manna.
