An authentic experience from the "Rio San Michele" dairy, located in the heart of the Apennines of Modena. Our Parmigiano Reggiano is a Prodotto di Montagna (mountain product), which is an additional quality certification. The cheese is made over 800 meters in the mountains, giving it a unique flavor shaped by the rich grass and fresh mountain air. This Parmesan cheese is perfect to enhance any dish with its authentic Italian flavor and exquisite quality.

Origin: During the 30 months of maturation, our Parmigiano Reggiano acquires a unique character and depth of flavor that sets it apart from younger ripenings. This period allows the flavor and texture of the cheese to develop to perfection, resulting in a cheese with an intense nutty flavor, grainy texture and complexity that can only be achieved through patience and traditional craftsmanship.
This cheese is the result of a carefully monitored process that follows strict traditional methods. Methods that Luca and the other cheesemakers still apply in a perfect balance between tradition, experience and passion. It all starts with milk from local cows grazing on the lush fields of the region. The milk is then brought to the dairies, where it undergoes a careful and precise ripening process under the expert supervision of the cheesemakers.
Tasting notes:
Aroma: When smelling 30-month-old Parmigiano Reggiano, you can expect an inviting aroma of nuts and spices that awakens the senses and hints at the complexity of the cheese.
Taste: At first bite of Parmigiano Reggiano aged 30 mesi (how to say months in Italian) you will be greeted by a deep and rich taste, dominated by the distinctive notes of nuts. These notes are balanced by an umami flavor that cannot be found in younger ripenings and leaves a pleasant aftertaste on the tongue.
Perfect combinations:
Wine: It is recommended to choose a strong red wine like a Chianti or a Barbera for this delicious Italian cheese. These wines complement the intense flavor of the cheese and add an extra dimension to the tasting experience.
Food: Parmigiano Reggiano 30 mesi can be used in a wide variety of dishes. It is perfect for grating over pasta or risotto, slicing as a delicate appetizer or serving as a tasty snack with fruit or nuts, or with a few drops of aceto balsamico on top!
Experience: Every slice of our lovingly crafted Parmigiano Reggiano invites you to participate in the time-honored tradition of Italian cheesemaking — a true celebration for the palate.

The pieces are unique due to the cutting operation and therefore it is impossible to guarantee a uniform weight. For this reason, and any weight loss, a weight tolerance of approximately +/- 5% is expected.
