Commentary
As a child in Spain, Giana's family had made cheese from goats milk on her father's small farm in the mountains above Alora. Later, living in France Giana was brought into contact with the great french cheeses.
Marrying into a farming family in Ireland where some of the best milk in Europe is produced Giana and her husband Tom experimented and produced their own cottage cheeses and fresh cheeses. Based on the coast of Schull, they soon met other cheesemakers working both in West Cork and nationally. This developed into CAIS, the Irish Farmhouse Cheesemakers Guild.
