 Parmigiano Reggiano PDO is one of the most famous and appreciated cheeses in the world, considered the “King of Cheeses”.

 ORIGIN

The origins of Parmigiano Reggiano date back to the Middle Ages in the lands between Parma and Reggio Emilia.Its production has remained linked to a specific territory, that of the provinces of Parma, Reggio Emilia, Modena, Bologna (to the left of the Reno river) and Mantua (to the right of the Po river), an area that guarantees ideal conditions: stable pastures for feeding cows, a unique microclimate and expertise handed down from generation to generation.

 CHARACTERISTICS

12-month Parmigiano Reggiano: this is the youngest and liveliest version of the King of Cheeses, fresh and surprisingly delicate.  Its texture is still soft and elastic, with a light yellow colour that reflects the fresh milk from the stables of Emilia. In the mouth, it offers sensations of milk, butter and a hint of fruit, with a natural sweetness reminiscent of yoghurt and fresh cream. It is not yet intense or pungent: this is the most tender and delicate side of Parmigiano.

 PAIRINGS

It is perfect to enjoy in cubes as a light snack, with fresh fruit such as apples and pears, or with delicate honey and light jams. Children also love it, precisely because it has a harmonious and unobtrusive taste.  In the kitchen, 12-month Parmigiano Reggiano is perfect for salads, carpaccio, aperitifs and appetisers: it enriches without overpowering, always leaving a sensation of freshness.
