Parmigiano Reggiano PDO is a hard cheese, produced in the provinces of Parma, Reggio Emilia, Modena and partly Mantua and Bologna.
Among the oldest cheeses in the world, it is obtained from the processing of 100% Italian raw cow’s milk, partially skimmed by surfacing and without the addition of additives. Parmigiano Reggiano PDO is known for its fragrant, delicate, savoury but not spicy taste.
We recommend tasting it for an aperitif or a healthy snack, better if accompanied with fresh fruit, nuts or honey.
