Parmigiano Reggiano

Pronounced par-mee-JEE-ah-noh reh-JEE-ah-noh

Parmigiano-Reggiano (PDO) is one of the key cheeses on any cheese board. Made in the Emilia Romagna region of Italy, Parmigiano is produced in the shape of large cylinders weighing approximately 80 pound each. When cut into, the hard smooth exterior reveals a cheese with perfect crystalline texture, a piquant, salty flavor, and a great aroma. Nebbiolo wines are a sensation match for this King of Cheeses!

Each cheese comes with a fromager note (describing the cheese with beverage pairing suggestions) and a cheese serving tag identifying its name, origin and milk type.
